Leander's Planning and Zoning Commission, established under state law, reviews proposed developments that could affect the city's growth and environment to ensure they comply with City of Leander development standards. The Commission consists of seven members, each appointed by the Leander City Council to three-year terms.

The Planning and Zoning Commission meets at 6:00 p.m. on the 2nd and 4th Thursday of each month at Pat Bryson Municipal Hall - Council Chambers, 201 N. Brushy Street, Leander, TX 78641. Agendas and minutes are posted through the city's official portal.

Development standards for property within Leander's city limits are set by the Composite Zoning Ordinance, which the city describes as designed to be contextually adaptive, form integrated, and administratively flexible. Each zoning district is defined by three elements: general use provisions, site standards, and architectural standards. The full text is codified in the city's Code of Ordinances, available on the Municode Library.
