Overland Park has planned zoning for all land in the city.
Planning and Development Services staff can verify the zoning assigned to a property or parcel. Even if a parcel’s zoning category is appropriate for a particular project, there may be additional development requirements.
All information used for zoning verification purposes is obtained from public records.
To receive an official letter confirming a property’s zoning, submit a request via ePLACE. There is a $250 fee, and processing typically takes about two weeks.
Residents, business owners and developers can verify zoning for a particular property using the zoning map below, which is updated regularly.
Site conditions cannot be verified for compliance with the ordinance unless an as-built survey is submitted. The City of Overland Park assumes no liability for errors or omissions associated with a zoning verification, as zoning information is subject to change.
You can learn more about zoning in the Municipal Code and on the zoning map.
