Zoning and land use in Jersey City are administered by the Department of Housing, Economic Development & Commerce, primarily through its Division of City Planning and Division of Zoning. Land use applications are decided by three volunteer boards: the Planning Board, the Zoning Board of Adjustment, and the Historic Preservation Commission. The Division of Zoning enforces and interprets the city's Zoning and Land Use Ordinances as well as Jersey City's redevelopment plans.
Jersey City's zoning regulations are set out in Chapter 345 (Zoning) of the city's Code of Ordinances, which is published online in the Municode Library. Chapter 345 covers the land use boards, zoning districts, and zoning and design standards. Related land development rules appear in other chapters of the Code, such as Chapter 299 (Subdivision of Land) and Chapter 56 (Planning Board).
The Division of Zoning issues two main types of approvals. A Zoning Determination Letter (ZDL) answers use-classification and ordinance-interpretation questions and is typically processed within 10 business days after assignment. A Zoning Review Application (ZRA) is required for anyone undertaking new construction, rehabilitation, tenant fit-out, solar panel installation, or other work that needs building permits. All applications are submitted through the Jersey City Online Permitting and Licensing Portal; the division does not accept in-person submissions.
The Planning Board hears applications such as site plans, subdivisions, site plan amendments, extensions, and signage-only reviews. The Zoning Board of Adjustment hears variances (with or without a site plan), appeals of zoning decisions, plus site plans, subdivisions, amendments, extensions, and signage-only reviews that require relief from the zoning ordinance. Applications for both boards are filed through the city's online permitting portal via the Division of City Planning.
The Planning Board, Zoning Board of Adjustment, and Historic Preservation Commission have historically met in person at the City Hall Annex Boardroom, 4 Jackson Square (also listed as 39 Kearny Avenue), Jersey City, NJ 07305. Beginning June 2026 the boards transitioned to online meetings held via Zoom. All meetings are conducted in accordance with the New Jersey Open Public Meetings Act, and agendas are posted on the Jersey City Open Data portal along with a published annual meeting calendar.
