Leon County Planning Department
Who We Are
The Tallahassee-Leon County Planning Commission (hereinafter called "Planning Commission") was duly established by virtue of an interlocal agreement dated September 26, 1967, between the County of Leon and the City of Tallahassee. This agreement designates the Planning Commission as the entity responsible for comprehensive area wide planning within the City of Tallahassee and Leon County. The Planning Commission is also the duly designated Local Planning Agency (LPA) and Land Development Regulation Commission pursuant to Chapter 163, Florida Statutes and the Transportation Planning Advisory Committee (TPAC) to the Metropolitan Planning Organization pursuant to Chapter 339, Florida Statutes. Duties and responsibilities of the Planning Commission are set forth in the interlocal agreement, the Planning Commission Bylaws, and the ordinances of the City of Tallahassee and Leon County.
What We Do
The Planning Commission is composed of three members appointed by the Board of County Commissioners of Leon County, three members appointed by the City Commission of the City of Tallahassee and one member selected by the School Board of Leon County and appointed by the City and County Commissions.
Members serve at the pleasure of the governing body which appointed them. Reasons for termination of a member include the following: 1)(a) for City appointees, the member no longer resides or owns property within the City limits, or is no longer a City Utility customer; (b) for County and School Board-selected appointees, the member no longer resides in Leon County; 2) the member is absent for two of three successive regularly scheduled meetings; or 3) the member has frequent conflicts of interest.
