In the style of an Ask Me Anything session, this is an opportunity for you to ask a planner your burning questions about planning and land development.

If you want to know what an Official Community Plan (OCP) does, ask away.  If you want to know about zoning, we can talk about that too.  What’s the difference between the two?  I’m glad you asked! Wondering about Development Permits, Development Variance Permits and the Board of Variance? Want to know what makes a great application? This session is for you!
