Welcome to Berkley!
The DDA is here to help YOU succeed. The guidance on this page is to help you open a business in Berkley. It’s important to know that every project is different and some steps may take longer than others.
Before you purchase a property or sign a lease, we encourage you to review our Land Use Matrix (click here) and Zoning Map (click here).
We also strongly encourage you to contact the DDA Director and the Community Development Director with specific questions related to a property, scope of project, grants or other programs. You can find their contact information below.
