Add a commentAs of July 1, 2019, all requests for Zoning Verification letters should come through the Permit and Development Portal. The Development Services Department provides these letters to confirm the zoning district(s) for any given parcel of land, as well any applicable zoning conditions that are on the parcel. A separate application must be submitted for each parcel.
A Zoning Verification Letter does not provide a determination of compliance or noncompliance of any existing land uses on the property.

Development Services customers will be required to apply for a Certificate of Occupancy (CO), when needed, effective July 1—the new application applies to temporary, partial, and full COs. The new application will only be accepted after all required final inspections are scheduled.
The Certificate of Occupancy application form will be available June 25, 2019 in the online forms directory and the City of Raleigh website.
