Planning

Planning is responsible for guiding and regulating Chesterfield County’s long- and short-term development for the benefit of present and future generations. We manage the county’s comprehensive planning and development review processes. These include site plan, subdivision and zoning. Other important department functions include general planning assistance for the public, growth and development trends analysis, and inspections for zoning code compliance. We provide information regarding active projects, pending development cases, and frequently requested topics regarding ordinances and policies. We make recommendations on many of these matters to the Board of Supervisors, Planning Commission and Board of Zoning Appeals.
