Geographic Information Systems (GIS)/Mapping Team combines planning and computer technology to offer a full range of services to city departments and development customers. The Mayor & Council and Planning Commission use GIS to make effective land use decisions through the use of visual data, reducing the need to conduct site visits to better understand the impacts of proposed projects. Using cutting-edge technology reduces the level of uncertainty inherent in land development and helps bring the greatest value to existing and future community projects. GIS support allows planners to be certain they are incorporating geographic and demographic data in the most efficient manner.

Our team updates all Planning Commission and Council approvals that impact existing Land Use and Entitlement maps. GIS/mapping is a critical function to support the City’s decision makers who rely on the data to preserve the quality of planning and development as the city grows and helps to ensure reinvestment in mature areas

GIS major functions and project support include: Zoning, Land Use, Public Hearing Notifications, City Council Agenda Items, Demographic Profile, Population Estimates, Comprehensive Plan Updates and Neighborhood Services Initiatives. We also provide a variety of maps and reports, such as: Distance Separation Analysis, Slope Analysis, and Sector Analysis.
