Community Development

The Town of Ennis is committed to thoughtful growth, transparency, and community involvement through its Community Development efforts. This includes planning, zoning, infrastructure, and the coordination of services that support responsible and sustainable development.

Community Development meetings are open to the public, and residents are encouraged to attend, stay informed, and provide input. Public participation plays an important role in ensuring that growth reflects the needs and values of the community.

If you are interested in serving in a Community Development role, please contact us for more information.
