Warren County Planning and Zoning guides development

Warren County's future growth and development is guided by the Planning and Zoning Department, which administers the Warren County Unified Development Ordinance (UDO). The department provides essential professional and technical support to local boards, including the Planning Board, Board of Adjustment, and Board of Commissioners, on all land use matters.

The Code Enforcement Department works in tandem with Planning and Zoning, focusing on the enforcement of the UDO. Residents who need to report a violation of the Unified Development Ordinance are encouraged to contact the designated Code Enforcement Officer.

The Warren County Planning Department is located at 100 S. Main Street in Warrenton, NC 27589. They can be reached by phone at (252) 257-3115 during their operating hours, which are Monday through Friday, from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Key staff members include Stacy J Henderson, Planning Director; Ronald H Heck, Code Enforcement Officer; and Beth Williams, Planning Technician. These individuals are central to the department's mission of managing land use and ensuring compliance with development regulations.

Residents and developers can access a variety of related documents on the county's official resources, including the Warren County Unified Development Ordinance, the Warren County Comprehensive Land Use Plan, and various application forms for zoning permits, subdivision plans, variances, sign permits, and special use permits. Applications for amendments to the UDO or Zoning Map, telecommunication towers, and solar farms are also available.
