Mission

The Community Development Department is dedicated to serving the community, protecting the quality of life, preserving property values, and improving the built and natural environment.


Welcome to the Community Development Department!

The Community Development Department is comprised of three Divisions whose responsibilities range from issuing building permits and business licenses to code enforcement, design review, zoning administration, implementation of the MAP (Monrovia Area Partnership)  program and historic preservation.  The three Divisions are as follows:

Each Division provides an essential service to the community and the intent of the website is to provide easy access to all of the information that is available to you.  I would also encourage you to subscribe to the Community Development Department's "Over the Counter" Blog, which is an entertaining way to keep in the loop on developments and other fun information related to Monrovia's built environment. With that said, we are just as happy to discuss your projects, questions and concerns at the Community Development Department counter or over the phone.  Feel free to contact any of our staff if you have any questions or need additional information.


The City of Monrovia is a great place to live, work and play and our staff is committed to seeing that it remains this way.  We pride ourselves on excellent customer service and we desire your complete satisfaction. To assist in this goal, we are in the process of developing various methods to communicate with you.  This includes a customer survey.  Your feedback will enable us to better advise, guide, and assist you.


As technology continues to play a more important part in the way we communicate and do business, I anticipate that our Department's website will continue to evolve over time providing even more information to you, our customer.


I hope that your experience with us is a good one.
