Village, town, community and specific plans are
used to provide a planning framework to guide future public and
private improvements in town centers and other concentrated urban
and rural areas; to provide a higher level of planning detail
and public involvement; and to promote economic viability, coherent
community design and enhancement of the unique characteristics
of the village areas and community centers as focal points for
living, working, shopping and visiting.
Policy
Development Review in Areas with Adopted Village, Town, Community
and Specific Plans. Review all new development and require compliance
with any adopted village, town, community or specific plan. Encourage
all land owners and businesses in these areas to follow the guidelines
adopted as suggestions in the plans.
