Land Use Framework

A Land Use Framework is a strategic plan that guides how land in a community or region is developed and managed. It balances various needs—such as housing, businesses, parks, agriculture, and conservation—by setting policies and priorities. This framework helps ensure land is used efficiently, sustainably, and in a way that supports long-term growth and environmental health. It provides guidelines for zoning, infrastructure, and development decisions, aiming to create a well-organized, livable, and resilient environment for current and future generations.
