One of the Planning Division’s primary responsibilities is to administer the
GLUP.
Primary policy guide for the future
development of the County.
Establishes the overall character, extent and
location of various land uses and serves as a
guide to communicate the policy of the
County Board on future development.
Each land use designation on the map
indicates range of densities and typical uses
for that general location.
Contains special districts with detailed goals
and objectives and identifies tools for
implementation.
