FLORENCE
COUNTY PUBLIC
PARTICIPATION
The
Comprehensive Planning Legislation
mandates that the governing body adopt written procedures to encourage
public
participation throughout the planning process. The “Public
Participation
Plan” forms the framework for achieving an interactive dialogue between
all parties involved in the development of the comprehensive plan.
Citizen
participation in the development of comprehensive plans is essential
for a
number of reasons:
- Ensures that good
plans remain intact over time
- Promotes strong
public buy-in for the plan
- Reduces the
likelihood of conflicts between councils, boards, and planning
commissions
- Speeds the
development process and reduces costs associated with the project
- Increases the
quality of planning
- Enhances the sense
of community trust in government
