FAQ

A comprehensive plan is a document intended to guide and shape future growth of a community. The South Carolina Local Government Comprehensive Planning Enabling Act of 1994 establishes requirements for local governments to develop and maintain a planning process which will result in the systematic and continual re-evaluation and updating of a comprehensive plan. As of 2024, the State requires that all comprehensive plans include ten primary elements: population, economic development, natural resources, cultural resources, community facilities, housing, land use, transportation, priority investment, and resiliency.

The comprehensive plan will be developed over a 12-month process, beginning in January 2025. It is possible that the schedule will shift throughout the process - please review the website for updates.
