Become involved in the Planning Process!

The City Council appoints residents to two volunteer planning support committees:

Planning and Zoning Commission: The P&Z Commission meets the final Monday of each month as necessary to make recommendations to the City Council regarding policies related to planning and development.

Board of Adjustment: The BOA meets on an as needed basis to review variance requests to the zoning code.

For more information regarding participation on one of these two boards, please contact the City Clerk's Office.
