CZMP 2024 Overview Meeting

The CZMP Overview Meeting will be held virtually via Webex.

Meeting Details:

The 2024 Comprehensive Zoning Map Process (CZMP) will begin on September 1, 2023 and will conclude in September of 2024. The CZMP takes place every four years on an exact schedule specified in the County Code. Any citizen may request a zoning change on any property in the County. The CZMP covers a period of approximately 12 months and results in zoning decisions that are reflected in a final Log of Issues, with the County Council enacting legislation for each issue whether to retain the existing zoning or to enact a different zone(s) or district(s). Generally, each issue is a single property, but an issue may cover many adjoining properties and might even cover many hundreds of acres. The zoning on all properties which were not issues is re-enacted without change.

Zoning is a system of land use regulation that controls the physical development of land. It is a legal mechanism by which local government is able to regulate an owner’s right to use privately owned land for the sake of protecting the public health, safety or general welfare.

Land is mapped into different zones with the primary purpose of promoting compatible land uses and to separate incompatible uses.
