Can you add zoning data to parcels?

OK so i have been banging my head against my desk for 2 weeks now with this project. I have 2 layers 1 is a zoning layer for the city and the other is the parcels. I need to get the zoning information into each specific parcel. This is easy up to the point where i have a parcel that is duel zoned or multi zoned. This is where im getting stuck. I HAVE to be able to keep the parcels whole but i also need to be able to see that it is duel zoned and where the zoning splits. I cannot create a new parcel to show the secondary zoning. anyone have any suggestions? I am also going to be color coding based on zone so if there is a way to do that without actually splitting the parcel up i can go that route too.

Is this a process that you would need to perform on a regular basis (e.g. weekly, monthly, quarterly, annually)? If so, you might want to think about creating a model and then exporting it to python to make additional modifications.

Do you need to account for every permutation of multi-zoned parcels (e.g. Residential/Commercial, Residential/Industrial, Residential/Open Space, Residential/Commercial/Industrial, etc.)? Or do you just need to break out the single zoned parcels and then place all the multi-zoned parcels into 1 category?

Try:

Add a field to your parcels that is set up the same as the name or zone type of your zones polygons.

Select a particular zone poly

Make a spatial selection of your parcels where the center is within the selected zone plygon

Calculate the parcel zone field = zone polygon name field

I've done this sort of thing in python that makes quick work of it if it's something you do over and over.
