The Nonprofit and Religious Use Coordinator guides organizations through the county’s zoning and permitting requirements for non-residential land development and construction. This service is provided as part of the Project Management Program.

For other zoning classifications, a special permit or special exception is required. You can get acquainted with the zoning and development process by reviewing our development process overview.
