The Town of Laurel’s Planning and Zoning Commission will conduct a public hearing on Laurel’s draft comprehensive plan at 7 p.m. Wednesday, August 9 at Town Hall. The public is invited to hear and make comments on the document, which is available on this website here.
The comprehensive plan, which covers a span of 10 years, is a detailed presentation of Laurel’s demographics, as well as information on and strategies for housing, transportation, historic preservation, economic development, community services, future land use, environmental protections, and other goals. Town of Laurel officials and state reviewers have made many suggestions for additions, deletions or modifications to the plan; they are not yet reflected in the on-line draft.
The Planning and Zoning Commission will determine whether to recommend adoption of the comprehensive plan to the Mayor and Council.
The plan was prepared by Lee Ann Walling of Cedar Creek Planning and Communications.
