Development Permits
Development action means review of any permit authorization or determination involving the application of the County Zoning Ordinance, Subdivision/Partition Ordinance and Sign Ordinance. Development Actions are reviewed by an Administrative process in which the County staff apply clear and objective standards that do not require significant discretion. This process does not provide public notice of the application or decision. Only the applicant can appeal the decision. Simple development actions such as setback review can occur on the spot, at the front counter. More complex applications can require permits such as a Lot Line Adjustment and Sign Permits and usually take from 15 to 20 days to complete.
