Help Us Make Development Review Work Better for Everyone!
Following the recent updates to the City's development code, the City of Santa Fe's Planning and Land Use Department is creating a companion Development Review Guide, a practical resource that will outline how the development review and building permitting processes work in Santa Fe. Our goal is to make the existing process more predictable, transparent, and consistent for applicants, neighbors, staff, and all participants in the process by clearly documenting procedures, establishing clear policies, and identifying where better guidance is needed.
To do that well, we need to hear from people with real experience navigating Santa Fe's development process. Your input — whether you are a developer, builder, architect, engineer, planner, neighborhood resident, or simply someone who has dealt with a permit — is invaluable.
This survey is anonymous. We will not ask for your name or contact information. If you provide project examples that could identify you, your responses to other questions will be anonymized to de-identify you prior to analysis.
Your honest feedback is what will help us deliver a useful product; we appreciate your candor.
The survey may take approximately 10-20 minutes to complete.
