BACKGROUND

The Comprehensive Plan (CP) is used to determine the most desirable location of each type of development. The CP is advisory in nature, and provides guidance to residents, staff, and elected and appointed officials on future growth and development in the unincorporated areas of Jefferson County. The Area Plans section of the CP contains additional advisory policies and land use recommendations that are also to be used when reviewing a proposed rezoning, special use, or location and extent. The policies in these plans were created to be specific to the Area to which they apply and reflect input from community members, property owners and area agencies.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR FEEDBACK!

A huge thank you to everyone who shared their thoughts on the partial draft of the Comprehensive Plan! Your input is invaluable in shaping the future of our community.

Since our last public outreach, which concluded at the end of February, a great deal has been happening behind the scenes. Staff and our consultant team have been diligently reviewing and addressing the public comments received on the partial draft of the Comprehensive Plan.

We expect to release a full draft version of this plan for public review by late May or early June. Once it is available, it will be posted here. Public meetings will also be held where you’ll have the opportunity to learn more and provide additional feedback.
