Welcome to the
Town of Corydon
The Planning and Zoning Department is responsible for aiding residents in gaining the proper permits for signage and development. This Department is also where you will go to have your case brought in front of the proper Board for an appeal to the Zoning Ordinance or Zoning of your property.
Building Permits and Sign Permits are obtained through the Planning and Zoning Office at the Town Hall by contacting Susan Mills, assistant to the Town Manager and Town Planner, or Rand Heazlitt, the Town Manager and Town Planner.
The average turnaround time for a permit is 48 to 72 hours.
Corydon has Seven different Zones. If you need to request a Zoning Change for your property, complete the Petition for a Zoning Change and contact the Planning and Zoning Department.
