Welcome to the Development Services Department, where each day we strive to build a better city. Our department oversees text amendments to the City's Comprehensive Plan and the new Unified Land Development Code. We also respond to citizens' residential and commercial property concerns and requests. Our city's motto is, "People Serving People."

Comprehensive Planning & Land Development Regulation

Through the comprehensive planning and land development code, the City intends to preserve, promote, protect and improve the health, welfare, safety, comfort, and good order of its people and the environment.
