Comprehensive plans focus on community development. They address compatibility issues
between land use, natural resource management and preservation, identification and
preservation of historically and culturally significant lands, and planning for infrastructure needs.
They can also include issues and needs related to health, economic development, education,
recreation, and housing. Most importantly, comprehensive plans provide a vision for the future
with goals and implementation strategies to achieve that vision. Land regulations, capital plans,
master plans, and issue-specific studies implement the vision and policies from a comprehensive
plan. Our adopted village plans include many or all of these issues, as well as others pertinent to
each NSB community.
