Planning & Zoning Boards
The Planning and Zoning Boards review site plan development applications and variance request from our City of Cape May Land Development Regulations. This includes applications for new projects, and the expansion of use or additions to existing structures. Other important tasks include review of all changes of our zoning ordinances and the master plan review.
ALL APPLICATIONS ARE AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION IN THE BOARD OFFICE IN CITY HALL.
