The Countywide Plan
The Countywide Plan is organized around two main
documents, (1) the
Policy Plan, and (2) the Business Plan. The Policy Plan
serves as the County’s general plan – a blueprint for meeting the County’s
long-term vision for the future – but in a much more comprehensive way. The
Policy Plan recognizes and differentiates the County’s dual roles of serving as
a “municipal” government for County unincorporated areas and as a “regional”
government delivering programs, including those mandated or funded by the state
and/or the federal government, to the County as a whole. The Business Plan
takes an innovative, systems approach to managing the County’s resources with a
Governance Element and an Implementation Plan.
The Countywide Plan Has a New Home on the Web
The County has formalized its commitment to go
further than any county or city has ever gone by creating a web-based version
of the Countywide Plan (adopted
in 2020) with
interactive and dynamic maps and content that can be searched and filtered
across all of its components. Please check out the new Countywide Plan website
here.
