Community Plans and Specific
Plans provide direction for entire communities
or other defined new geographic areas. These plans
will take different forms depending on the specific
needs of our communities. They typically set forth
policy and implementation strategies for such
items as land use, transportation, urban design,
parks, school facilities, and public services.
A Community Plan for a developed, mature area
would focus on neighborhood enhancement and commercial
revitalization goals and action items; whereas
a Specific Plan or Community Plan for an area
that is newly developing would focus more on new
development needs, location of new public facilities
and infrastructure financing. These plans help
implement the County General Plan on area-specific
basis. In addition, the County has initiated and
implemented special planning programs for projects
that are unique and controversial in nature.
