In an effort to continually improve services to the residents of Santa Cruz County, the County web site has been recently expanded to include four new components.

 

County Code: The two volume Santa Cruz County Code is now available on-line. Volume 1 contains the administrative section of the Code, and Volume 2 contains land use regulations. A word search engine is provided to assist users in locating information. The on-line versions of the County Code will be updated at least annually.

 

Building or Discretionary Application Status: Individuals who have submitted Building or Discretionary Applications are now able to check the status of those applications through the County’s website. This information can be accessed through the Planning Department’s section of the website.

 

Commissions, Committees, and Advisory Bodies: The County website now includes information on each of the County’s commissions, committees, and advisory bodies. The site identifies those groups that have current vacancies, and interested persons can submit on-line applications.

 

MTBE-Free Gasoline: The Board of Supervisors encourages residents to use MTBE-free gasoline, and a list of local vendors is presented on the website.
