The Planning and Development Department is responsible for processing plating and zoning requests and ensuring that the proposed development will conform to the Town of Westlake's comprehensive plans, zoning regulations, building codes, and other regulations of the town.
Additional responsibilities of the department include:
Our department is a digital-only, paperless department. All contractor registrations and permits must be submitted online via MyGov. For zoning, platting, variance, and development inquiries, contact planning@westlaketx.gov or call 817-490-5742.
Developers interested in developing in the Town of Westlake are required to reach out to Town staff to determine the appropriate process for development. For zoning, site plan, and platting applications, developers are required to meet with the Development Review Committee (DRC).
The Planning Department will contact you to schedule a meeting once the completed form has been submitted with ALL required items. The DRC meets twice a month on Wednesday mornings, with time slots at 10am and 11am. Meetings are scheduled on a first come, first serve basis.
Applicants requesting variances from the provisions of the Unified Development Code or Specific Use Permits are required to have a meeting with a Planning and Development staff member before submission of a formal development application. An applicant must request a meeting by contacting the Planning & Development Department via email at planning@westlaketx.gov before the formal submittal date.
For more information, please see the Developing in Westlake page and Development Review Calendar.
