• Use Permit – Required for certain land uses that need special review on a case-by-case basis to determine
whether or not the use is appropriate in specific situations.
• Subdivision – A preliminary subdivision plan is required when a parcel of land is subdivided into more than
50 lots. This review ensures that the subdivision meets all design criteria established by the Chesapeake
Subdivision Ordinance.
• Rezoning – Required when a property owner proposes to use his or her land for purposes other than those
permitted in the current zoning classification.
• Site Plan – A preliminary site plan is required for new construction and additions located on land zoned
commercial (exceeding 50,000 cumulative square feet) or multi-family residential.
• Planned Unit Development (PUD) – The establishment of PUD districts are for specialized purposes
where tracts are in a suitable location, area, and character for the uses and structures proposed to be
planned and developed in a unified manner.
• Street Closure – Required when an owner of property located adjacent to a street or other public right-of-
way seeks to close the street or other public right-of-way and convert it to private property.
• Special Exception – Offers relief of specific Zoning Ordinance requirements only under special
circumstances.

applications are subject to public hearings by the Planning Commission
and City Council. Public notice for public hearing applications include:
1. A legal advertisement in the Chesapeake Clipper
2. Mailings to adjacent property owners

• Preliminary subdivisions and preliminary site plan applications do not require a legal advertisement,
but a sign is posted on the property.

an application, you will need to register for an eBuild account. After you are logged in, enter the
