Norcross currently has an opening for citizens willing to serve on the Planning and Zoning Board. The Planning and Zoning Board makes recommendations to the city council on rezoning applications, special use permits, and changes to the zoning ordinance. The recommendations of the board are not binding, but allow for a full discussion and analysis of the development request.

Members of the Planning and Zoning Board meet at 7:00 p.m. on the first Wednesday each month.

Residents interested in having an active role in Norcross zoning regulations may submit an application to Monique Lang at monique.lang@norcrossga.net. Information: www.norcrossga.net/116/Planning-Zoning. Deadline to submit an application is May 16.
