The Planning and Development Services Department is responsible for the plans and management that keep the City running.

A bachelor’s degree in urban planning, public administration, management, architecture, civil engineering, or a related field and five years of progressively responsible supervisory and management experience involving interpretation and application of planning and zoning codes and regulations, are required. A master’s degree is preferred. Any combination of education and experience to provide the required knowledge, skills, and abilities will be considered. Candidates must have a valid Texas driver’s license or the ability to obtain one within 90 days of employment (or a military waiver).
