Development Review Guidebook: The Planning Office has developed a comprehensive Development Review Guidebook for all local land use permitting in Georgetown. A copy of the final report is available in the Planning Office. In the fall of 2014 the Guidebook was updated: contact information for the different departments was changed as necessary and some scrivener's errors were edited.
