Planning & Development COVID-19 Updates
- Applications will be handled as usual, but with the constraints imposed by short-staffing.
- Social distancing: Departmental staff are required to follow the social distancing guidelines while working out in the city. Staff can speak from their vehicles to residents, but not face to face. Our City employees are dedicated to serving our community and our residents. These social distancing requirements offer a challenge in providing our personalized service, but abiding by them will allow our department to continue to provide services for the duration of the pandemic.
- Inspection and Code Enforcement prioritization: Inspection and code enforcement for vacant lots and vacant structures, as well as imminent hazards to public health and safety, are being prioritized at this time. Please understand that through this pandemic, the department may not be fully staffed, and staff will have to prioritize accordingly.
