Little Rock Planning Commission

The Little Rock Planning Commission was created by Little Rock City Code Sections 23-27. Its eleven members serve three-year terms. The duties of the Commission are to promote public interest and understanding of long-range, coordinated municipal planning and land use; to review proposed subdivisions; and to make zoning recommendations to the Little Rock City Board of Directors.

Members of the Planning Commission are appointed by the Little Rock City Board of Directors. One member may reside outside the City Limits within a designated three-mile planning jurisdiction.

Planning Commission meetings are typically held on the second Thursday of the month at 4:00 PM at the Centre at University Park, 6401 West 12th Street. IMPORTANT: due to COVID-19, meeting locations and times are subject to change. Confirm all meeting information in advance of meeting date.
