Established in 1976, the Planning & Zoning Committee was formed to review land use, development, and zoning requests within the township. It serves as an advisory board and plays a key role in maintaining the character, safety, and long-term planning of Silver Creek.

This board is made up of five appointed members, each serving a three-year term, working alongside the Town Board.

Important Notes:

• The committee recommends approvals or denials, but final decisions are made by Wright County Planning & Zoning or the Wright County Board of Adjustment. 
• Applicants are responsible for presenting their requests to the county after township review.
• The committee also handles CUP/IUP annual renewals (Conditional/Interim Use Permits) and reports those recommendations to Wright County.
   

Meetings are held:

• 1st Tuesday of each month at 7:00 p.m., followed by the regular Township Board meeting.
