CITY OF CANANDAIGUA
If your ideal spot is within City limits, meeting with the City of Canandaigua’s Director of Development and Planning at the outset of your development process will ensure that you’re clear on the necessary approvals you’ll need to obtain. The City has developed a handy user’s guide to walk you through the whole process, and we recommend reviewing this ahead of your first meeting.

The Town of Canandaigua’s Development Office is a one-stop-shop for building and land use matters in the Town of Canandaigua. If your dream spot is within Town limits, the Town’s Development Office Team will help guide you through the approval process from start to finish.
