Preparing to Succeed
Before making any real estate commitments, investors and entrepreneurs can take advantage of Pre-Development Planning Meetings through the Zebulon Economic Development office. This allows businesses to explore options, set clear expectations, and streamline the development process from the very start.
Our team can help coordinate with key city departments – including planning, zoning, permitting, utilities, and environmental health, so you can:
Explore opportunities and identify potential challenges early on
Understand the region’s zoning and permitting codes
Connect with environmental for site-specific considerations
Take advantage of available funding, grants, or capital
Save time accessing critical services with the appropriate contacts
Set realistic expectations and project timeline for planning purposes
We’re here to guide you toward success right from the start. Other resources include the Town of Zebulon Planning Department for zoning and planning inquiries and the Zebulon Chamber of Commerce’s Business Toolbox.
