Land Development Code

The Town of Cornelius established the Land Development Code to guide Town planning efforts by focusing on public space, infrustructure, buildings, and parks.

Be sure to reference the Land Development Map to determine if the property in question is also in an overlay district, which may contain additional allowances and/or restrictions.
