The Planning Board is composed of seven members appointed by the Board of Selectmen for 5-year terms. Both the Planning Board and the Code Enforcement Officer (CEO) are charged with administering the Land Use Ordinance (LUO) and other related ordinances. The Planning Board uses the LUO and other relevant ordinances and laws as the criteria for review of applications. All types of applications and ordinances are available in the CEO/Assessing Office. If needed, the CEO's Office can help with preparation of your application.
The number one reason for delays on approval of applications is lack of completeness of plans and forms.
To avoid delays please review the LUO Checklist before submitting your application.
The Planning Board reviews the LUO each year to consider changes. These reviews are held in public workshops and hearings and the Board encourages any interested towns person to attend. Suggestions and comments are welcome. The Planning Board of the Town of Southwest Harbor meets as needed on the first and third Thursday of the month at 6PM at the Town Office unless otherwise noted by posting at the Town Office and Post Office.
