With Roswell’s newly launched Planning and Zoning Public Notices Interactive Map, residents and other interested parties can now easily find this information on the city’s website.

“We know it’s difficult to read all the information contained on one of these signs while you’re driving through town,” said Planning and Zoning Director Brad Townsend. “Our goal with this project was to create a place online where someone could access all that information simply and quickly.”

The presence of a public notice sign on a piece of property means the owner is currently applying for permission to develop the property in a way that requires a change in zoning, use or variance to development standards.

Public notices are also issued for any demolition of a historic structure in the Historic District.
