Program Information

The Planning & Zoning Office issues building permits and 911 Addresses, as well as assists property owners with plats, conditional use permits, and variances. The Zoning Ordinance explains the different zoning districts, as well as the permitted principal uses and structures, permitted accessory uses and structures, conditional uses, and prohibited uses and structures for each district.
  • Assists with any floodplain needs. The Davison County Flood Plain Authority is the county/city limit line. The office staff can assist with an aerial view of the property using the Geographic Information System (GIS), or the property owner can access the system at www.davisoncounty.org/departments/planning-and-zoning/. This allows allows the user to view, understand, question, interpret, and visualize data in many ways that reveal relationships, patterns, and trends in the form of maps, globes, reports, and charts. A property owner can build in a flood plain, but will need to complete a Floodplain Development Permit Application, to include a flood proof plan. The property can also be built up with fill and the soil compacted to rise above the flood plain.
  • Assists with any drainage needs. The Drainage Ordinance is intended to provide the basic guidance needed by the county drainage commission in carrying out drainage responsibilities.
