Zoning Office Responsibilities

The Municipal Land Use Law, N.J.S.A.40:55D, is the state statute that regulates land use in the State of New Jersey. The Zoning Division is responsible for the enforcement of this statute, as well as the enforcement of local zoning ordinances adopted by the City of Millville. Duties of the Division include:

• To discover and ascertain the existence of any zoning violations.
• Investigate any alleged zoning violation.
• Prosecute zoning violations in Municipal Court as provided by law. 
• Report to the Millville Zoning Board of Adjustment with respects to matters before the Board when required.
• Review, inspect, and issue required zoning permits for residential and non-residential properties.
• Ensure compatibility of signage with surrounding land uses.

When considering changes to your property in the City of Millville, you most likely require both zoning and construction permits. It is your responsibility to contact the department to confirm if a permit is required.
