Land Development Code Work Program
The Land Development Code (LDC) contains regulations for the development and use of property including zoning, subdivisions, and other related land use activities. The Code Update Team monitors and continually updates the code to simplify and streamline the permitting processes, assure compliance with state and federal regulations, and eliminate unnecessary barriers, redundancies and contractions. Through these regular updates, the LDC will be more responsive to address the City’s changing land use issues.
If you have any requests or corrections, please email your requests to [email protected] and include: code section, table if applicable, explanation of discrepancy/error/conflict and any proposed language/solution.
