Register for Zoing Notification »

Have you ever wondered what those yellow signs meant that the County puts up at major intersections? They are notification that there will be a Public Hearing due to an application submitted to or by the county for one of the following Land Use Requests:

1. Requests for rezoning
   
   
2. Minor Modifications to existing Planned Development zoning districts and Special Use Permits
   
   
3. Major Modifications to existing Planned Development zoning districts and Special Use Permits
   
   
4. Special Use Permit requests for activities, such as liquor stores, solid waste facilities, etc.

The Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners recognizes that neighborhoods and civic associations have an interest in participating in planning and development issues, which have an effect on them. To provide neighborhood groups with a greater opportunity to participate in the decisions which affect their residents, the Board of County Commissioners approved procedures that interested neighborhoods within one (1) mile of a proposed development activity be notified. Notice will be by mail, concerning the application and the dates for public hearings. This will give the members of your organization an opportunity to consider the proposed development and determine if you wish to comment on it (in planning language, "to become a party of record").

Please note the following requirement: MUST be an organization which represents the geographic area of the no less than 50 households. The organization must actually represent 50 percent of those households, or no less than 25 households

Activities which require notice to neighborhood groups and civic associations are:

1. Requests for rezoning
   
   
2. Minor Modifications to existing Planned Development zoning districts and Special Use Permits
   
   
3. Major Modifications to existing Planned Development zoning districts and Special Use Permits
   
   
4. Special Use Permit requests for activities, such as liquor stores, solid waste facilities, etc.

To register, please read and complete the entire registration form; if the form is not complete the application will not be processed.

Note: The Office of Neighborhood Relations maintains an extensive database of neighborhood associations. The Registry is a special subset of the larger database, requiring additional information from the neighborhood association to qualify to receive notices of proposed development or changes in land use.
