The Planning, Zoning, & Building Department is responsible for
the future plans of the City including the City’s Comprehensive
Plan. The Department also enforces the Zoning Ordinance, Sign
Ordinance, and the Subdivision Ordinance. Applications for
rezonings,
conditional use permits, zoning
code amendments, and
variances are processed by
Planning, Zoning & Building and forwarded to either the City
Plan Commission or the Board of Zoning Appeals.
The Department is also responsible
for the regulation of all building in the City. Before you build,
it is always a good idea to contact the Department to check on
requirements. Both the property owner and the builder are
responsible if appropriate permits have not been applied for and
issued.
