Planning & Zoning Commission

The Planning and Zoning Commission makes recommendations to the City Commission regarding development and land use in and within 2 miles of the city's corporate boundaries. The scope includes:

  • Review of master plans, preliminary and final plats,
  • Zone change requests,
  • Annexations,
  • Transportation studies,
  • Street vacations, and
  • Other items as instructed by the City Commission
  • Meetings are typically held the fourth Monday of every month at 5:30 p.m. at City Hall.

Planning & Zoning applications must be submitted 30 days prior to the Planning & Zoning Meeting. If the date falls on a weekend or holiday, the deadline would be the preceding business day.

The Planning & Zoning Commission is broadcasted by Dakota Media Access. The broadcast is live if it doesn't conflict with a previous schedule. Otherwise, the meetings will be re-aired the night of the meeting at 9 p.m. on channels 2 and 602 HD. All programming can be watched at freetv.org.
