The purpose of the comprehensive plan, in addition to providing a “snapshot” of where Scott County is in terms of its growth management, is to provide decision-makers throughout the county guidance in their efforts to develop and implement consistent and constructive growth policy decisions – decisions that will result in responsible economic and civic benefit to the citizens of Scott County.

 

   Each element (or chapter) contains a set of related goals and objectives based on a common principle that, taken together, will move Scott County forward by ensuring realistic deliberations concerning growth decisions in the future. By using a series of citizen advisory committees in partnership with the professional staff in the Planning and Zoning office, a concerted effort has been made to ensure balance, fairness, and an accurate reflection of community desires in the goals and objectives set forth in the Georgetown-Scott County Comprehensive Plan.
