The People
of Carroll County
Are Planning Its Future!
============================================
The “Carroll County Comprehensive
Plan for Growth and Development” includes three areas:
-
Economic Development
-
Social Development
-
Natural Resources and Agricultural
Development
A comprehensive plan is needed
for the following reasons:
| 1. |
To charter a carefully planned
direction for the future |
| 2. |
To protect the County’s
existing desirable rural character and natural environment |
| 3. |
To guide the development
of transportation, utilities, housing, sanitation and other social amenities |
| 4. |
To develop a plan for business
attraction, retention and expansion |
Who will direct the Carroll
County Growth and Development Plan?
In a real sense, the needs
and desires of all citizens will direct and lead the overall plan. A group
of teams, under the direction of their team leaders, will work together
to develop a detailed plan based on the inputs received from the residents.
