Town Planning Services
Comprehensive Planning
All communities are either required to have a comprehensive plan or should have one. The challenge for rural communities (under 5000) is they don’t have the budget for either the plan or the things they would like to put in the plan. We take a different approach. Rather than starting from a clean slate, or the last version that was done, we use a best of breed starting point and then take away things that may not apply or be realistic. This dramatically shortens the process and still gives you a plan that meets your needs. The pricing is also designed to be within reach of almost any small community.
