PLANNING AND BUILDING
 
Planning Department

Woodlake's Planning Department works to ensure that Woodlake is a well-planned community.  The Department is charged with carrying out both short and long-term planning programs.

Short-term planning activities include the processing of various planning permits, including Site Plan Review, Conditional Use Permits, Variances, Parcel Maps, Subdivisions and Annexations.  In this function, the Department administers the Woodlake Zoning Ordinance and the General Plan.

Long-term planning efforts consist of preparing and amending Woodlake's General Plan and its associated elements including land use, circulation, housing, open space, recreation, noise and safety, among others.  The Department also prepares environmental reports on projects.
