About
Kentucky cities are allowed to regulate land use within the construct approved by the Kentucky General Assembly. While cities are not required to enact planning and zoning, Princeton has chosen to do so.
Planning and zoning is an intensive process in which areas of a city are designated for specific purposes. Such land use zoning is the result of significant planning done on the part of the city. Market studies, demographic trends, infrastructure assessments and any other applicable research are combined into a comprehensive plan that governs the next five years of zoning activities. Ordinances are then passed to enforce those land use and transportation decisions.
The Princeton Planning Commission, made up of members of the community, provides oversight of this highly regulated process. Members of this board include: Carol Woodall, Gale Cherry, Bill Perry, Karen Wigginton, Paul Hooks, Ryals Farless and Chris Burton.
Public input must be received in a number of different forms, and an appeals process overseen by the Board of Adjustment is in place for those who wish to adjust established zoning requirements. Members of the Board of Adjustment include: Paul Hooks, Gale Cherry, Shane Fortner, Allee Coleman and Kayla Thomas.
The Planning and Zoning department is currently administered by Jenny Clark.
