• Following the meeting, if a subdivision or recombination of properties is requested, the interested party can apply to the Planning Commission for approval of subdivision and/or recombination. The initial information needed to be placed on the Planning Commission agenda must be in the City office 30 days prior to the meeting and includes:

  • Letter describing the project and its future
  • Soil studies for the possibility of steep slope issues
  • The filing fees are available on The City of Oak Hill Schedule of Permit fees.
• After the initial review, comments will be available one week after the deadline. At this point, the applicant has one week to answer/respond to the comments and turn in 4 additional copies of the response and updated plans.
• The applicant, or their designated agent, must appear at the Planning Commission meeting to discuss the combination/subdivision. If there is no one to discuss the request, it will be tabled until the next month.
• If the final plat is approved, a new copy is needed for registration of the new plat and records in City Hall.
