Zoning and Subdivision

The Current Planning Division is divided into the Zoning Section and the Subdivision Section.

The Zoning Section enforces the County's Zoning Ordinance by processing and analyzing petitions for changes in zoning, special procedures, and variances to the zoning regulations. The Zoning Section also researches and proposes ordinance amendments to ensure that the Zoning Ordinance is effective in regulating land use. Additionally, the Zoning Section, conducts and coordinates plan reviews of commercial, industrial, and residential development in unincorporated St. Louis County by the St. Louis County Planning Commission. For more information on zoning changes, please visit our Citizen's Guide to the Zoning Process web page. For detailed information about applying for a zoning change or special procedure, please view our Guide to the Zoning Application Process
brochure.

The Subdivision Section oversees the division of land for unincorporated St. Louis County. In addition, the Subdivision Section is responsible for the calculation, collection, monitoring, and management of escrow accounts for public improvements in subdivisions.

The Citizens Guide to the Subdivision Process is a quick reference for the process of subdividing land in unincorporated St. Louis County.
