Welcome to the City of Warren Planning Department. Our mission is to provide citizens and businesses easy access to information and links relating to approvals, projects and programs administered by various commissions and staff in planning, community and economic development.

Our hope is that you find this information valuable, streamlining the process in making the City of Warren a positive place to live and do business.
