Planning & Zoning

Overview

The City of St. Ignace Planning and Zoning Department administers provisions of the City Code of Ordinances with regards to land use and development. The Zoning Administrator is responsible for issuing Zoning permits, which are required for many home improvement projects, as well as monitoring City Code enforcement.

Conceptual Review Meetings

The City encourages anyone interested in developing in St. Ignace to schedule a conceptual review meeting with the Zoning Administrator or Building Inspector. Such a meeting will allow a chance to discuss the project, ensure you have the correct forms, and work through any potential concerns. Depending on your project, other topics may be discussed, such as other permits that will be needed. All that is needed to schedule one is a general idea of your planned development and a location. To schedule a meeting, please contact the Zoning Department at 906-643-9671 x4.

Please see this page's side tabs for relevant forms and documents such as Zoning Maps, the Zoning Ordinance, applications, fees, etc. Fees can be paid via cash, card, or check at City Hall.
