City of Sandusky Comprehensive Plan Erie Regional Planning and the
Sandusky Community Development staff have partnered together to begin
work on a City of Sandusky Comprehensive Plan. A comprehensive plan is a
long-term land use plan that attempts to balance current needs and
demands with those projected in the future. The land use plan guides the
community in an attempt to balance the consequences of future change.
Moreover, it acts as a blueprint for a community to attempt to strike a
balance between the competing claims of the present and future; between
the public and private interests in land use; and between the costs and
benefits of changes in land use management and development. Plan elements will include land use, housing, economic development, commercial development, recreation/park facilities, transportation, infrastructure/utilities, environmental/natural resources and community facilities and services. The completed Comprehensive Plan will establish a framework for making land use decisions relative to development in the City of Sandusky. In addition, the finished plan will also contain a number of identified issues with corresponding action steps that will provide strategies for a number of elements related to growth. Plan completion is scheduled for sometime in 2009.
