Mercer
County Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance
The Mercer County Subdivision
& Land Development Ordinance was passed by the County Commissioners on
February 23, 2006. This new ordinance replaces the previous SALDO in
Mercer County. This current ordinance will take effect on April 1,

Land
Development Review Process:
- For
minor land developments in all communities, the applicant shall submit a
copy of all information pertaining to the application for a local building
permit and all other required local municipality permits.
- Major
land developments in zoned municipalities will be treated as a minor land
development. All local
municipal approvals must be granted, and evidence presented, before a
minor land development can be approved.
- For
major land developments in unzoned municipalities, the applicant shall
submit all information required in the ordinance, specifically Sections
506, 601, & 602.
Subdivision
Review Process:
- For
a plan located in a municipality that has their own Subdivision & Land
Development Ordinance and that municipality’s planner is in charge of
the technical review, the subdivision plan shall be submitted to that
municipality. The municipality
will then forward the subdivision to the County for review.
- For
a plan located in a municipality that has their own Subdivision & Land
Development Ordinance and MCRPC’s planner is in charge of the technical
review, the subdivision plan shall be submitted to MCRPC.
MCRPC will forward their findings and review comments, as well as
the plan, to the municipality for their decision.
- For
a plan located in a municipality that is under the Mercer County
Subdivision & Land Development Ordinance, the subdivision plan shall
be submitted to MCRPC. MCRPC
will forward the plan to the municipality for their comments through the
Municipal Subdivision Review form, and the approval will come from MCRPC.
