COMPREHENSIVE PLAN

Scott Anderson, Planning & Zoning Director, was present for the public hearing and gave the second reading for the 2045 Envision Comprehensive Plan. State law requires that a comprehensive plan be adopted before a county can enact zoning controls. A comprehensive plan also serves as a blueprint for how the county will handle growth and establishes policies for land use. The County Commission was given updates on the development of the comprehensive plan during meetings held in August and October 2024. The current 2035 Plan was adopted on June 16, 2015. After approximately one year of meetings before the Planning Commission to present the updated chapters and 3 months of density task force meetings, the Envision 2045 Plan is complete. The updated comprehensive plan was presented to the Planning Commission during the September 23, 2024, meeting along with a public hearing held during the November 25, 2024, meeting. Public input meetings were also held in Dell Rapids, Brandon, and Hartford. The 2045 Envision Comprehensive Plan includes the following chapters: Introduction; Population & Employment Analysis; Existing Land Use Analysis; Growth Management; Rural Conservation; Environmental Stewardship; Transportation; Future Land Use Plan; Implementation; and Appendix. The Planning Commission unanimously voted to recommend adoption of the Envision 2045 Comprehensive Plan.

Chair Karsky asked for proponents and opponents to speak on the topic. There were no proponents and opponents in attendance to speak on the topic.

MOTION by Kippley, seconded by Bleyenberg, to Adopt the 2045 Envision Comprehensive Plan.  By roll call vote: 5 ayes.
