Land-use Planning Now Underway
This is Part II of a four-part
series on the Coastal Area
Management Program.
This material was supplied
by the Coastal Resources
Commission.
Land-use planning is now
underway in all 20 counties
under the Coastal Area
Management program. These
land-use plans are documents
that will determine the best
path for each county to follow
for future' development and
growth. By November 23 of this
year all plans must be adopted
by local governments and
presented to the Coastal
Resources Commission for final
review and approval.
A land-use plan is a blueprint
for each county in the coastal
area. Each plan will contain all
of the important facts about the
population and size of the
county, the soil and water
characteristics, the type of
industry and economy that
support the county, and the
growth issues that face the
county in the near future. All of
these facts will actually be the
written description of the
county.
Besides a summary of facts,
each land-use plan will also
contain the full range of
opinions on growth and
progress from the citizens of the
county. These are being
asked and recorded during
these important early months of
the land-use planning. The
opinions gathered from the
public will form a statement of
goals and objectives that will be
written into the land-use plan
for constant reference in the
future when decisions must be
made about specific
development projects.
While the summary of facts
and the statement of goals and
objectives are being collected,
professional land-use planners
are preparing maps and charts
that will show the different
classifications of land within
each county. These
classifications include land that
is primarily urban, land that is
expected to become urban
within 10 years, land that is
agricultural, land where small
rural communities are located,
and land that should be
conserved because of its fragile
nature or public ownership.

Many land-use plans will
supplement land classification
maps with land-use maps.
These land-use maps will show
more detail within each
classification. They will be
especially helpful in highly
developed areas where new
growth should be well-directed.
This situation occurs in the
beach towns and the large
inland cities.
T& insure that the planning
effort will be as comprehensive
as possible in the short time
available, the Coastal Area
Management Act offers three
metods for towns and cities to
participate in the land-use
planning process. Towns that
exercise zoning and subdivision
controls and enforce the State
Building Code are given
authority to prepare their own
land-use plans. The boards of
county commissioners are
permitted to offer other towns
the right to produce their own
plans or the county
commissioners may extend to
the towns the privilege of
making recommendations for
the county plans. In each of
these three methods the act
encourages cooperation
between the towns and the
counties in the planning process.
One of the first official
resolutions passed by the
Coastal Resources
Commisssion also pointed out
the importance of cooperative

have recommended that county
planning boards and city
planning boards meet jointly
several times during this year to
iron out potential problems of
conflicts between the needs of
the county and the growth
pattern of the city.
Each county land-use plan
will include every acre of land
in the county. Since these are
