The posted schedule pairs each filing deadline with a later hearing. Staff communicates the payment deadline; confirm your case is scheduled before making plans.
Our BZA guide ↗03 / HISTORIC ZONING
Historic Zoning Commission
Historic-overlay design review and preservation permits.
Application, public-notice and hearing dates are separate. Check the agenda for the location; work sessions may meet at a different time and place.
Our Historic Zoning guide ↗04 / PLANNING
Planning Commission
Subdivision review, site plans, community plans and zoning recommendations.
The 2026 calendar requires documents 24 hours before the noon fee deadline; the 2027 calendar requires 48 hours. Confirm the calendar for your hearing year. A filing does not guarantee a particular hearing date.
