Planning and Zoning
The Planning and Zoning Department sets the framework for the City’s development through policy and development review by the Planning Commission. The department pursues community development by facilitating community planning processes, implementing federal, state, and local codes and ordinances, assuring quality commercial, residential and structure construction, helping to ensure the health, safety, and general welfare of the public and to help ensure the protection of the environment relating to zoning by providing fair, consistent, and timely enforcement of local codes and ordinances through service, education, and coordination with other agencies.
The Planning and Zoning Commission is charged with the duties of planning for the future growth of the City and creating, updating and enforcing zoning ordinances.
The Planning and Zoning Commission meets the second Thursday of every month at 7:00 pm in the City Council Chambers. The City Council Chamber is located at the Florence City Hall, 106 South Patterson, Florence, Texas 76527.
