The 2011 Plan was last updated in 2016.
As described on the Planning Office’s website, the Comprehensive Plan is a “policy document that guides the future of land use and development. It addresses housing, transportation, infrastructure, public services, jobs, natural resources, history, culture, the economy, the environment, and land use, including community design, preferred development areas, and redevelopment. The Plan documents the goals of the community for the next 10 to 20 years as set by those residents, businesses, and industry stakeholders who choose to be involved in the process.”
The process to update the 2025-2035 Plan began back in 2021. A series of stakeholder interviews were held to gather input from businesses and organizations about their priorities for the future of Hardy County.
The Hardy County Planning Office is nearing completion of its update to the county’s Comprehensive Development Plan. It will hold three public open houses over the next ten days to seek vital public input on the final draft.
