Building Code Enforcement

The City of St. Robert is committed to ensuring that the homes in which

the residents of St. Robert reside and the buildings in which they work or

frequent are designed and constructed to be structurally stable with

adequate means of egress, adequate light and ventilation, and to provide

a minimum acceptable level of protection to life and property from fire. The

enforcement of the adopted building codes by the City Building Department

ensures that the public safety, health and welfare of the community are

provided for in all buildings and structures that are constructed or occupied

within the City of St. Robert. 

The St. Robert Planning and Zoning Commission, and Board of Aldermen

are committed to ensuring that the adopted regulations and standards for

the zoning district classification, subdividing, and development of land for

urban use within the City shall provide for adequate light, air, open space,

drainage, traffic circulation, utilities, and other needs of the community. This

joint commitment will ensure the viable and equitable growth of a healthy,

attractive, and efficient community for the residents and visitors of St. Robert.

It is the obligation of the St. Robert Planning and Zoning Commission and

Board of Aldermen that all land development within the City be implemented

using sound and effective planning practices that are in compliance with the

Missouri Revised Statutes, City Comprehensive Plan and the St. Robert Land

Development Regulations. 

Land Development Regulations

The Land Development Regulations are a broad set of zoning and

subdivision regulations that are intended to help preserve and protect

existing property uses and values from adverse or non-harmonious

adjacent land use developments. Implementation of these regulations will

ensure that all land uses within the City are governed by a minimum

acceptable set of guidelines and criteria that govern permissible land uses,

subdivision developments, zoning district boundaries and infrastructure

requirements within the City. The Land Use Department’s enforcement of

these established zoning and subdivision regulations will ensure that the

coordinated physical development of the community will be conducted

in a logical and well planned process that is compatible with the comprehensive

plan of the City and the future growth of the municipality.
