This site is designed to help Citizens of Ashland County in better understanding Planning and Zoning Issues within our County.

In Ashland County, almost all Townships and Villages have a Zoning Resolution and Map. Therefore, in many cases, residents will be required to apply for a Zoning Permit, in order to change zoning, construct, and/or make changes to a structure. To see if you are in a Zoned Township or Incorporated Village, please check our list.

If you are located within a Zoned Township or Incorporated Village, the next step is to contact your Zoning Inspector, click here for a list of current Zoning Inspectors in Ashland County.

If you are unable to contact your Township's Zoning Inspector, please contact your Township Trustees for further advise. Click here for a list of current Township Trustees in Ashland County. Note: If you are unable to contact your Village Zoning Inspector, please contact your mayor.

We are providing a Checklist to follow when requesting Zoning changes, Land Use changes, or changes to Zoning Resolutions and Maps.
