The Village of Sussex has a strong planning process for the community. The Village provides planning services, zoning enforcement and building inspection with a small but dedicated staff.

The Village has many planning documents that guide how the community develops. The Comprehensive Plan is the overall planning guide for the community. Sub plans, like the Park and Open Space Plan and Downtown Plan, provide additional details to guide development. In addition to the planning goals of the community, the Village also utilizes several documents to guide and shape how developments will look and feel. Those documents include the Design Standards, Land Division and Development Code, Zoning Code, Master Land Use Map, Border Agreement, Development Matrix and Development Requirements.

We encourage you to take a look at the various plans for the community. We take great pride in working closely with those looking to locate their businesses or residential developments here. Don’t forget to utilize the GIS system to find important information about the parcels, land uses and facilities in the community.

If you are looking to develop or locate your business in Sussex, the process starts by calling 262-246-5200. We look forward to working with you and continuing to grow the community.
