Session Title: The Benefits of Comprehensive Planning – The Evolution of the Comprehensive Plan & Current Best Practices

Conference Abstract:
Comprehensive planning has innumerable benefits, providing opportunities for communities to address recreation, traffic, economic development, land use, pedestrian safety, climate change, housing, disaster recovery, and a whole host of other issues deemed important to the municipality. This session will discuss how the comprehensive planning process has and continues to evolve, will identify new issues facing communities and how they are being addressed through current best practices, will discuss solutions for maximizing necessary funding for project implementation, and why local planning and zoning board members are integral to the planning process.
