A Comprehensive Plan is a document prepared by the Plan Commission which sets forth policies for the future development of the community. It is the result of considerable study and analysis of existing physical, economic, and social characteristics, and includes a projection of future needs and conditions. The value and purpose of a Comprehensive Plan is to rationally and objectively identify the timing and location of land and infrastructure development - something that zoning and subdivision regulations alone cannot accomplish.
