Planning Department

Arlington's Planning Department includes a Town Planner, Planning Consultant, and a Planning Clerk. The Department is responsible for both current and long-range planning, as well as Zoning Code enforcement efforts. The Department reviews all applications for new commercial, residential, office, and industrial development in Arlington, as well as applications to revise existing sites. Staff also reviews rezoning, signage, variance, and residential building permit requests.

Staff provides technical and administrative support to three Town boards: the Planning Commission, the Design Review Committee, and the Board of Zoning Appeals. 

Information on current projects, the development process, building permits, and more is available through the Links on the Right side of this page. The Handouts page also includes information on frequently asked topics. 

In addition, Applications for planning permits can be found in the Document Center , and you can view meeting agendas and approved meeting minutes here. 

Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions about the development review process:
