The Planning Department receives, processes, reviews and makes recommendations on applications to rezone property in the County. Some re-zonings require amendments to the land use plan. These proposed land use plan amendments are processed in conjunction with their related rezoning requests, and must be approved prior to rezoning.
The Zoning Handbook is intended to provide an overview as to the processes involved in zoning and the characteristics associated with different zoning designations and requirements.
