Planning & Zoning

The Planning and Zoning Division of the Community Development Department is responsible for implementation of Coronado's General Plan, Local Coastal Program, and Zoning ordinances. The Planning and Zoning division responds to general inquiries about a property's zoning; development regulations such as setbacks, allowable building heights and floor area ratio; allowable uses within a zone; subdivision of property; discretionary permits required with a development project such as coastal permits or special use permit; and the necessary applications and fees to file when a discretionary permit is required.
