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.
