Community Development

Municipal Building Entrance

The Community Development Department oversees the City's comprehensive planning, zoning, inspections and economic development in the following manner:

• Investigate fair housing for discrimination, grant work for rehabilitation, and the need for a varied housing stock, including assisted living and multi-family units. These initiatives are outlined in the City's Goals Statement.
• Grant building, rental, and demolition permits and certificates of code compliance

Community Development also includes preserving the historic districts and individual historic structures. Oxford has a Historic Architectural Preservation Commission (HAPC), and the Community Development Department helps its citizens apply for historical preservation grants when applicable. (See Historic Preservation under Zoning)

For questions, concerns, complaints, etc. please feel free to contact Lynn Taylor at 513-524-5204 or email at ltaylor@cityofoxford.org
