Planning & Zoning
Boards and Commissions: The City Council relies on the Planning Commission to recommend land use policy and to hold public hearings to take comment on specific land use applications prior to decisions. The Historic Preservation Commission is charged with inventorying the community's historic resources, and with making recommendations for listing on the local, state and national registers of historic places. And the Board of Adjustments hears appeals of decisions by the Building Official, and also reviews applications for variances to the zoning code.
Codes, Regulations and Licensing: Check here for shortcuts to land use and development codes.
Forms & Documents Online: Looking for a land use application? Visit this page for a complete listing of forms and documents used in the Community Development Department.
Historic Preservation: Cheney's Historic Preservation Commission is a Certified Local Government (CLG), recognized by the State of Washington meeting state and federal standards for our historic preservation program. Maps: Check here for printable maps of the community in .pdf format. Wayfinding: The Community Development Department is involved with a community-wide study of signage and 'wayfinding' with the goal of making it easier for visitors and newcomers to find their way around town, and to locate places of interest. Read the final report that was presented to City Council.
