Shared Responsibilities

As part of the Gartner Report to improve the delivery of Development Planning, Permitting and Inspection services, Ed Gagnon of Customer Service Solutions met with staff and the development community to gather input and brainstorm on ways to improve our services.   During these meetings, staff and the development community collaborated to establish a listing of staff responsibilities, customer responsibilities and shared responsibilities.  Click here to view a diagram of these responsibilities.

Land Development staff is available to meet with your organization to further discuss the Shared Responsibilities.  Please contact Land Development Customer Service at 704-336-6692 to schedule a convenient time for staff to visit your organization.
