The Planning Department and Building & Safety have joined together to make services easier to access and use. You’ll now find both under the new Planning and Development Services Department.
Welcome to Building and Safety. Our mission is to promote the quality of life for Lincoln’s residents by working together to ensure that fire, housing, and building codes are met.
As part of the Development Services Team, we work with other city and county agencies –Health, Planning, Transportation and Utilities, and Urban Development – to streamline the construction process as well as to promote a safe community for the residents of Lincoln and of Lancaster County.
