Prior to submitting a formal application, it is recommended that a Town planner preliminarily review your project plans. Based on the information presented to the planner, a checklist of required items needed for application submittal will be completed. At this meeting, you will also receive a Site Development Application form and handouts to aid you in the process of preparing the submittal requirements and project plans.
Planning staff is available to answer general questions during counter hours. Public records are available for review in the Town’s public records room. The Town’s Fast Track Guide for New Residences (PDF) can be used as a guide to help those who are planning to build new homes to understand the basic philosophy behind the Zoning Ordinances and the General Plan.
Please call 650-941-7222 to make an appointment with a planner.
