Nassau County Planning & Zoning Board Vacancy

The Board of County Commissioners is currently seeking a volunteer to fill a vacancy on the Planning & Zoning Board, representing District 3 (Yulee area). 

The Planning & Zoning Board reviews all requests for rezoning of property, zoning amendments, Comprehensive Plan text amendments, Land Use Map amendments, and amendments to Ordinances that affect the use and development of land. The Board submits written recommendations on these matters and submits them to the Board of County Commissioners for a final determination. The Board also hears appeals where it is alleged that there is an error in a decision made by the Planning Director or staff, as it relates to Zoning Codes or the Comprehensive Plan. The Board also comments on preliminary site plans and serves as the Local Planning Agency for Nassau County.

The Board is made of up 7 members as follows:

  • Five County Commission District representatives (one for each district)
  • One At-Large Representative
  • One School Board Representative

Meetings are held on the first and third Tuesday of the month beginning at 6:00 p.m. Members serve terms that run concurrent with the District Commissioner's term.  Board members are provided a stipend of $75 per meeting and are reimbursed for mileage at rates set by the Federal General Services Administration. ​Members are required to file a financial disclosure. This is a perfect opportunity for anyone wishing to learn more about the County's planning process. 

If you are interested in serving, please submit a resume to contact@nassaucountyfl.com by the close of business on Monday, August 26, 2024. Resumes will be provided to the Board of County Commissioners and will be considered at a Board meeting in September. If selected, you will be notified in writing and scheduled for an orientation soon thereafter.

If you have any questions about the Planning & Zoning Board, please contact the Planning Department at (904) 530-6320. Additional information can also be found on the Planning Department webpage.
