Planning & Development

The City of Cleveland understands that economic growth and community development are key ingredients for business success.  Cleveland would like to establish a reputation in the region as a community that is progressive in areas such as planning and community development.   Ordinances such as zoning and subdivisions help to promote healthy growth and increase economic viability for existing and future businesses.

To review the City of Cleveland zoning ordinance, refer to Chapter 126, or the subdivisions ordinance, Chapter 106 of the Cleveland Municipal code online.
