The city has
adopted a comprehensive zoning code
which governs development within the
corporate limits of Breese.
This code
regulates lots, structures, and land uses in
order to protect and promote the public
welfare.
Zoning
permits must be approved by the zoning
administrator prior to beginning any
construction or demolition within the city
limits. A nominal fee schedule, based upon
size and type of structure or development,
is published in the zoning code. Permits
are required for primary construction
(including homes, businesses, and government
institutions), accessory construction
(including fences, garages, pools, decks,
and driveways), and planned development.
Any questions
concerning zoning issues can be directed to
Mr. Vince Chawgo, Zoning
Administrator, at Breese City Hall,
618-526-7731.
A detailed
city map, portraying the zoning districts,
is on display at City Hall.
