Do urban planning and zoning departments use flat-file cabinets?

Yes. Municipal planning and zoning offices use flat-file cabinets to store survey maps, zoning maps, site plans, and subdivision plats — documents that are frequently large-format and must remain flat for accuracy and reference. Archive models with 10+ drawers manage large document collections. Historical planning documents in good condition should be stored in acid-free sleeves within drawers.
