Planning & Zoning
Please contact (225) 262-5000 and speak to the Planning Department for guidance with planning & zoning procedures and required applications. Staff highly recommends pre-application conferences to discuss proposed developments or subdivisions. Staff will offer comments to the applicant and/or developer in an effort to make each development more compatible with surrounding uses, city codes, and the Master Plan.
