Research & Input
A cornerstone of planning is the ongoing public dialogue on matters that are affecting them. The main objective of public input is to improve efficiency, transparency, and public involvement in the overall comprehensive planning process. As a vital part of the Comprehensive Plan public involvement opportunities were held, yielding hundreds of participants, and countless public comments. Kentucky state law also requires that a comprehensive plan must be based upon an analysis and forecast of the general population, economy, land use, transportation, community facilities, and any other background information that the Planning Commission judges will further serve the purposes of the Comprehensive Plan.
