Smart Growth Strategic Plan
"Below is the draft of the first major component of the Village’s Smart Growth Strategic Plan – the “Planning Assessment.” The “Planning Assessment” component consists of the following sections:
- Evaluation of Existing and Future Conditions – Evaluates a variety of topics important to municipal planning including population and employment growth, land use and development, environment conditions, community facilities, historic resources, etc.
- Planning Context and History – Provides evaluation of the Village’s planning history and the status of current planning efforts within the Village
- Planning Coordination – Evaluates planning efforts of the State, County and adjoining municipalities as they relate to South Orange.
- Planning Issues - Identifies key planning issues within the Village, as derived from the cumulative input received from the community survey, public visioning sessions and the discussions of the Smart Growth Strategic Plan Committee.
The Planning Assessment provides the foundation for development of the second major component of the Smart Growth Strategic Plan – the development of “The Plan” component, which will include goals/objectives and recommendations to address the identified planning issues.
Please bear in mind that this is a draft only and is subject to change. In addition, once a full draft with all sections is complete, there will be a public workshop before the plan is submitted to the Planning Board and Board of Trustees.
