River Falls' zoning and land development standards are intended to protect the public health, safety, comfort, convenience, and general welfare of the community.
Development review is required for all new multi-family and nonresidential development projects (including building additions). River Falls operates a staff-driven development review process. Most site reviews do not include Plan Commission or City Council review; however, staff and/or the developer have the opportunity to take the process to the governing bodies if necessary.
