Development Policies and Procedures

Planning and Zoning Department
The Planning and Zoning Department works to enhance the quality of life in the community by guiding its orderly growth and development while preserving its cultural heritage and natural resources. If you are a company planning an investment of $3 million or more ask our Planning Staff about our industrial incentive grant.

Unified Development Ordinance (UDO)
The Sidewalk Exemption Policy, a recent amendment to the UDO, can lower the cost of construction for those that meet the criteria. Find out about this policy and more key information about development standards in Kannapolis by viewing the UDO.

Before submitting a plan for review, utilize our plan review summary to understand the requirements. For more information contact the Community Development Department at 704-933-5999.
