Project Description

The purpose of this project is to develop a community-based comprehensive land use plan for the City of Fairhope that recognizes all community concerns and issues to translate this information into a clear framework, plan and course of actions supporting community growth in a responsible, sustainable and resilient manner. This project will involve compilation and analysis of geospatial data that will provide baseline information, delineating urban growth boundaries, determining environmentally sensitive areas, etc., along with community engagement and review of community codes and updates. The comprehensive land use plan will recognize the interconnectivity of all community concerns and issues to guide future land use activities and code updates for the purpose of protecting and preserving the culture, heritage and natural resources within the planning jurisdiction of the City of Fairhope and broader Mobile Bay watershed.
