Concerns Over Comprehensive Development Plan's Broad Land Use Objective
Make a change to the draft revision to the county’s comprehensive development plan
The Spirit of Jefferson | Wednesday, November 27, 2024
In an article published by The Spirit of Jefferson, a representative from the Jefferson County Foundation discusses concerns regarding a revision to the county's comprehensive development plan, specifically Goal 1, Objective 4. This objective has been broadened to include all land uses, which raises concerns about the potential for unrestricted zoning changes without clear criteria for research and review. The representative expresses confusion over the rationale for including this objective, particularly as it seems to allow almost any land use and notes the challenges faced by county commissioners who attempt to modify this objective amidst resistance from other planning members.
