The Planning and Zoning Department is responsible for the maintenance and enforcement of the Unified Development Ordinance. The Department is also responsible for all long range planning, such as the Land Use Plan and Strategic Plan, as well as current planning issues such as rezoning, special use permits, commercial site plan review, and subdivision plats. The Planning Officer serves as staff to the Planning Board, which is an advisory Board to the City Council. All re-zonings, special use permits, and major subdivision plats are subject to approval by the City Council. All construction and change-outs must be approved by the Inspections Department.
