Houston also has parking ordinances, such as requiring 4 off-street parking places for each 1000 square feet of retail. There are also other restrictions which may affect some areas including drainage, sewer use, water, etc. Fire codes are still effective, depending on the business, which can affect design and occupancy.

No zoning doesn't mean no rules, it just means no centralized planning.
that's basically equal square footage to retail as parking. That's insane.
