Sedona AZ (July 9, 2021) – Yavapai County is in the process of updating its Comprehensive Plan to cover the next 10 years. This critical document will guide the Planning and Zoning Commission, as well as County Supervisors as they consider development proposals over the next decade.
If you are not yet familiar with the process for updating the Comprehensive Plan, click here for an explanation.
By law the County must include a section in its Comprehensive Plan covering the environment. The law states: “The comprehensive plan shall be made with the general purpose of guiding and accomplishing a coordinated, adjusted, and harmonious development of the area of jurisdiction pursuant to the present and future needs of the county. The comprehensive plan shall be developed so as to conserve the natural resources of the county, to ensure efficient expenditure of public monies and to promote the health, safety, convenience, and general welfare of the public.”
To help understand the priorities of the residents of Yavapai County, Keep Sedona Beautiful created an environmental survey that we would appreciate your completing. We will share the survey results with the County.
Please do not take this survey unless you are a resident of Yavapai County.
