The Planning Department plans, organizes and coordinates all land use planning activities within the Town limits. This includes developing and implementing land use policies and regulations, and reviewing permit applications.
The town offers an informal pre-application meeting with staff to review individual proposals with the applicant prior to filing an application. This process can ultimately save the applicant time by expediting the review process.
The Concrete Municipal Code is available here.
Town of Concrete contracts with Town Planner Kevin Cricchio for its planning services.
