The Malta Planning Board is a 7 member citizen board appointed by the Town Board with 7-year staggered terms. The Town Board gives the Planning Board the following independent authorities to review development activities within the Town:

1. Subdivision Review: the creation of any new lot or lot line adjustment within the Town requires an approval from the Planning Board.
2. Site Plan Review: the Planning Board has jurisdiction over the development of most new multi-family, commercial, institutional and industrial projects. Site plan review covers such items as parking, landscaping, lighting, drainage, etc.
3. Special Use Permits: the Planning Board has approval to allow certain types of land uses to be established within existing zoning districts provided special standards and conditions/criteria are met.
