Goal 2: Land Use Planning
Goal 2: Land Use Planning focuses on organizing and managing land development to create sustainable, balanced communities. It involves designing spaces for homes, businesses, parks, and agriculture to ensure efficient use of resources, protect the environment, and improve quality of life. Thoughtful land use planning helps prevent urban sprawl, reduces traffic and pollution, and preserves natural habitats. By planning how land is used, communities can grow responsibly while maintaining access to essential services and green spaces, ultimately fostering healthier, more resilient, and equitable environments for current and future residents.
