  • Dover Planning Board to review proposed changes to land use code

    posted on: 4/20/2018

    The City of Dover Department of Planning and Community Development is pleased to announce the Planning Board will review proposed amendments to the land use code on Tuesday, April 24, 2018. Planning staff drafted the proposed changes in February and March, based on Planning Board recommendations in January.

    Christopher Parker, AICP, Assistant City Manager, said this round of reviews is part of an ongoing process.

    “In 2009, we reviewed the Code for the first time in four years, and realized that it didn’t need to be that way,” Parker said. “We believe that our regulations should be dynamic and reflect the community. In order to meet that goal we need to look at the regulations on a constant basis.”
