Settlement Policy
Settlement Policy refers to the rules and guidelines that determine how, where, and when housing developments are built or expanded within a community. It helps manage urban growth, ensuring that new development occurs in a controlled and sustainable manner, balancing factors like infrastructure, environmental impact, and community needs. These policies aim to promote organized growth, improve living conditions, and prevent issues like urban sprawl or overcrowding. Essentially, it’s a planning framework that guides responsible development to create balanced, accessible, and well-maintained neighborhoods.
