Besides clarifying the County's intentions and policies of what the County should expect from this Comp Plan, he will focus on the areas of the plan that are particularly relevant to the Department of Public Utilities.
Los Alamos has historically had long-range plans for the physical development of the community since the County was formed in 1949. Each plan influenced the community's growth.
In 1957 a Long-Range Plan was developed and subsequent plans were created and approved in 1963, 1976, and 1987. and 1987. In 2004, Los Alamos County began a Comprehensive Plan revision, however, it was not adopted by Council. In 2005 Council adopted the Vision Statement of the 2004 effort.
Since 2005, the County has developed individual elements and master plans, but has not attempted to develop a comprehensive plan until the current effort, which started in 2015.
