The LDF Tribal Land Use Application is required for all development permits on LDF Tribal and Allotted lands within the Lac du Flambeau Reservation. This would also include all LDF tribal members owning fee land and any and all business/organizations working on any tribal and allotted lands within the exterior boundaries. The review process is essential to ensure that proposed projects on Tribal Land are compliant with Tribal codes and ordinances as well as State & Federal guidelines.

There is no cost to enter a Land use Application for review. Applications may be entered online or on paper. Paper applications may be mailed to the Land Management Department or dropped off during regular business hours.

A complete Land use Application must include the following:

1. Completed LUA Form
2. Site Plan
3. Building Plan
4. Business Proposals must also have a Business Plan

Only complete applications will be reviewed. Standard review time varies from 2-4 weeks depending on the complexity of the project. Applicants may be required to provide additional documentation before final review.

Once a project is reviewed by Tribal Departments and recommended for approval, a permit can be issued by the Land Management Department. Permits are valid for one year from the issue date. Please review permit fee scale and provide payment at our office (M-F 8am-4pm), or mail check or cash payment to:
