A listing of Michigan governments with a master plan and/or zoning ordinance is now available. A list of counties, townships, cities and villages with active web-sites is provided along with links to master plans and zoning ordinances that were made available online. Websites that contain compilations to master plans and zoning ordinances from around the United States is also provided.
Feedback is welcome and additions to this list are anticipated. If your community has an official website that posts a “master plan” and/or zoning ordinance that is not shown on the list please forward the information to us at: pzc@pzcenter.msu.edu with the subject line “plan and ordinance list.” Other locations with existing plans and ordinances that are not accessible are encouraged to make them available online.
Communities without planning or zoning documents are encouraged to reference this list for the purpose of formulating new plans and ordinances. Communities that are updating or amending plans and ordinances may also wish to reference established policies and regulations from around Michigan and the United States. If you have questions regarding a community's master plan or zoning ordinance contact information can be found on the local unit of governments website.
