Land Use Permits

Land use permits are official approvals required before landowners can develop or modify their property. These permits ensure that the proposed use of land—such as building homes, businesses, or parks—complies with local zoning laws and regulations. They help manage growth, protect the environment, and ensure public safety by assessing factors like traffic, noise, and community impact. Obtaining a land use permit often involves submitting plans and undergoing reviews by local authorities or planning boards, ensuring that developments align with community goals and standards.
