Planning Division

A nationwide Zoning and Planning Scam targeting payment of fees for permits has been identified. Mono County Community Development Department invoices are only sent by postal mail or from an email address ending in “@mono.ca.gov.” Payment is accepted via postal mail, in person at an office, and by credit card online; payment information is never processed via email. If you receive a suspicious email invoice, please contact our front office at 760-924-1800 for assistance.

The Planning Division provides information and collaborates with agencies, organizations and departments involved in planning, environmental review, and development policies. We seek input on planning matters of interest to local residents and property owners through Regional Planning Advisory Committees (RPACs), task groups, surveys, local media, and public hearings before the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors.

The Planning Division processes permit applications as quickly as possible without compromising the quality of planning services. We maintain continuity between the planning offices in Mammoth Lakes and Bridgeport, and ensure consistent information is provided to the public. The Planning Division coordinates with other departments, community groups, organizations and agencies, and forms partnerships to resolve planning issues.

The Community Development Department offers a wide array of options on our Online Services page.

Our mission is to provide efficient, responsive, and innovative public service through teamwork.
