Private controls on land use include

Building codes are regulations set by local governments that specify the minimum standards for construction and safety. While they do influence land use by ensuring safety and compliance, they are public regulations rather than private controls, and therefore do not fit the definition of private land use control.

Zoning involves land-use planning developed by local governments to designate how land in specific areas can be used, such as residential, commercial, or industrial. Similar to building codes, zoning is a public regulation aimed at organizing urban development and ensuring compatibility among different land uses, thus it does not represent private control.

Floodplain management refers to policies and practices established by governmental entities to mitigate the impact of flooding on communities. It primarily focuses on public safety and environmental protection rather than private land use, and thus does not qualify as a private control mechanism.
