Greensboro Planning Department
The Greensboro Planning Department provides professional planning expertise, facilitates land use regulation, and directs the comprehensive planning process for the orderly growth and development of the City. It is our philosophy to balance the physical and social needs of the City's diverse population while maintaining a high level of professionalism.

Greensboro Planning Department

The Planning Department is located at 300 West Washington Street in downtown Greensboro and can be reached by phone at (336) 373-2144.

Our Commitment

Our job is to help Greensboro to continue to grow as a great place to live and work. We welcome everyone who wishes to invest in the City. As investors go through the City’s development review process, construction review process and building inspections, disagreements may occur about what the City’s ordinances, regulations or policies require. These processes do include formal appeal procedures to address such situations; however, the City Manager’s office is always available to hear any concerns you may have. Our goal is to make sure that everyone feels they have been fairly heard in attempting to resolve disagreements.

You may contact an Assistant City Manager at 373-2002 if you have questions or concerns.
