Our Mission

"Employing the highest ethical standards, the Planning and Development  department shapes the built environment of Dawson County through innovative planning & managed growth, continuing the County's town lifestyle and rural traditions."


To accomodate the many challenges of change in Dawson County, our leaders have taken the lead role in promoting a high quality Planning and Development department.  This department is the proactive vehicle for directing growth within the county.  Beginning with the establishment of zoning and land use regulations in 1985, planning and development has been actively involved in pursuing a common vision for the county.  

The department is divided into separate divisions which work together to form a unique tool to both promote and control growth and economic development.  These divisions are Planning and Zoning, Building Permitting and Inspections.  Coupled with our valued administrative personnel we provide an excellent team of experience and customer service to the county.  We look forward to working together for a better community!
