LUC Policy Questions – Work session
The Community Development department provides a complete range of planning and building services to the community to help preserve, protect and enhance Salida’s unique small-town residential and commercial character. Our goal is to assist individuals as well as developers through both the planning and building process from concept to construction.
The Community Development department maintains the City’s land use code and zoning map, and provides support to the Planning Commission, the Salida Regional Planning Commission, the Board of Appeals, the Historic Preservation Commission, and the Board of Adjustments. We process a variety of current planning applications from building permits to major subdivisions and annexations.
