What To Know Before You Apply
  • Starting a new business?
  • Developing in our City?
  • Remodeling your house?

You tell us what you intend to do, and the Planning Department will verify that it is permitted by the zoning for your property. We will prepare a packet with the proper information you need. Application forms are available at the public counter or online.  You can also call the Planning Department at (909) 477-2750 or e-mail us at Planning@CityofRC.us

Each application is customized for your project. For most projects this will include:

  • Submittal Requirements: Blueprints, maps, and fees.

  • Plan & Map Requirements: Review these carefully before you prepare plans. We have examples to assist you. Typically the application will enlist the services of a professional, such as an architect or engineer, to prepare the plans.

  • Application Form: Usually a two page Uniform Application. More complex projects, such as subdivisions, commercial and industrial development, have additional application forms.

  • Supplemental Information: Depending on the type of project, public hearing information, environmental checklists, or special studies may be required.

  • Fees: For most applications payment of fees is required at submittal.

As you can see, the more complex your request, the more complex the application packet. The Planning Department wants to help you prepare your application and plans. Once an application is received a planner will be assigned to work with you until completion of your project.
