Zoning

The Town of Morrison Planning Committee makes formal recommendations to the Town Board regarding zoning change requests.

If you are interested in applying for a zoning change, you must submit a Change Request Form to the Zoning Administrator, Dave Klug, along with a $425.00 application fee. The Planning Committee will hold a meeting. All property owners within a 100-foot radius will receive written notification of your request. A public hearing will be held within 30 days after this meeting. After the public hearing, the zoning request will be on a monthly Board meeting agenda. The Town Board will receive the recommendation of the Planning Committee. It is the Town Board that makes the final decision on whether to permit a zoning change.

It can take several months from application until a final decision is made for zoning changes, so please understand that if you are considering building, you should check the zoning far in advance.

Zoning Permit

The zoning review for each building permit has been separated from the Building Permit process. Before a building permit can be issued a Zoning Permit is now required.

Please fill out the Town of Morrison Zoning Permit and send it to the Zoning Administrator for review and approval. No Building permits will be issued without an approved zoning permit.
