The Zoning Division takes pride in providing supportive information and timely reviews to assist property owners and applicants through the County's planning and permitting processes as we plan for and ensure that Collier County's natural and built environments adhere to the community's vision as expressed in our Land Development Code, Growth Management Plan and other planning documents.

We accomplish our mission through a variety of functions performed by Sections that comprise the Department:

The Community Planning Section is responsible for the Board of County Commissioner's initiative for the restudy and update of four sub-area master plans located in eastern Collier County: the Rural Fringe Mixed-Use District; the Golden Gate Area Master Plan; the Rural Lands Stewardship Area; and the Immokalee Area Master Plan. The schedule for the master plans restudy is staggered over the next several years. Many public workshops are on the calendar. Please join in providing your input to the future growth of Collier County.

The Comprehensive Planning Section is primarily responsible for the development and implementation of the County’s Growth Management Plan (GMP). This section also compiles long range planning data, such as population estimates, and supports other Department functions with GMP consistency reviews.
The Zoning Services Section is responsible for providing zoning and assistance to the general public, processing zoning petitions, reviewing plans for conformance to the County’s codes, and providing technical assistance to the Collier County Planning Commission (CCPC), the Historic and Archaeological Board (HAB) and the Business Center where all development applications are received and processed.
