The City of Jackson Zoning Ordinance Procedure Manual provides a comprehensive, systematic guide through the procedures of each type of Planning/Zoning Application outlined in the zoning ordinance.
A description of each type of Planning/Zoning Application, as well as, submittal requirements (checklist), fee schedule, and procedural flow charts are included as a guide for applicants wishing to submit a Planning/Zoning Application for review.
