Planning Commission

Overview

The Colleton County Planning Commission consists of nine members appointed by Council. The Commission reviews preliminary plats and makes recommendations to Council on rezoning cases, and prepares-and revises periodically-plans and programs for the development of the County. The Commission also makes recommendations to County Council on such issues as zoning ordinances, regulations for the subdivision or development of land, tree ordinances, and other matters related to the development of the County.

Staff is responsible for reviewing applications for completeness, and shall either return the application for additional information or schedule it for review and action by the board. Once completed staff will prepare and present a staff report based on the regulations and conditions set forth in the County ordinances for the board to review and make a determination.
