The City of Piqua Planning and Zoning division of the Public Works Department was established in November of 2004, for the purpose of administering the tasks necessary to preserve and enhance the current land uses, and to effectively plan, implement, and regulate the development of future land uses, while protecting and improving the quality of life in our community.

General Government, Public Safety, Land Use, Transportation, Parks and Recreation, Cultural Interest, and Utilities...Each element is as essential as the next in maintaining the dynamics that support the standard of quality, level of service, and range of services desired by the community. Planning and Zoning endeavors to influence, with prudence, the capital improvement projects, land use developments, and community desires being contemplated for approval by city government. The office works to ensure the timeliness of implementing any such project will best suit the current needs of the community, will stimulate synergy between projects, and will contribute to sustainable and affordable growth in our community.

Provide the aforementioned services while monitoring and adjusting to the changing trends in the community...That is the charge assigned to the Planning and Zoning office.
