Welcome to Current Planning (Zoning)
The Current Planning office is a section of the Division of Planning, Department of Metropolitan Development. Located on the 18th Floor of the City-County Building, Room 1821, Current Planning's primary function is to support the Metropolitan Development Commission (MDC), and the Metropolitan Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA), by evaluating and administering approximately one thousand land use petitions annually. This includes support to other decision-making bodies which function under the authority of the MDC, including the Hearing Examiner, Hearing Officer, and the Plat Committee.
The Current Planning staff also provides staff support for the town councils and variance boards of the excluded cities of Beech Grove, Lawrence, and Speedway.
The professional planners and support staff of the Current Planning office are a valuable resource to citizens, developers, and neighborhood organizations.
Additional functions of the section include: Petition Intake and Subdivision Administration, Petition Review, Public Hearings, Zoning Ordinance Maintenance, Maintaining and Updating of all Marion County Zoning Basemaps, and Database/GIS Services.
