The mission of the Development Services Department is to
provide timely and accurate planning and building services to the
general public and to development professionals while guiding the
overall development vision of the City to protect and enhance its
natural and man-made environment, economic base, neighborhoods and
protect its wildlife.
The Development Services Department is made up of the Planning,
Zoning, and Building & Safety divisions. The planning and zoning
divisions are responsible for regulating the type, scale, and land use
that may be established at a given location. The Municipal Code,
together with the official zoning map, establishes zones to regulate
land use for compatibility with surrounding uses. Development standards
are included for density, height, yards and open space, parking
requirements, landscaping and irrigation, etc. The General Plan is a long range policy document which defines the framework for managing the City's physical and economic resources.
The Building and Safety Division is responsible for structural and life
safety concerns in the construction, demolition or alteration of
buildings including, but not limited to, matters such as electrical,
plumbing, and mechanical systems, energy conservation and access for
the disabled.
Please note the Development Services Counter will be open until
1 p.m. every day of the week that City Hall is open. To view
