  • Facilitates employment growth in key areas of the County that have access to transportation infrastructure, utility infrastructure, available land and are proximate to existing industrial uses.
  • Encourages logistics, industrial and agriculture-related industry growth along major thoroughfares.
  • Supports limited commercial development at rural crossroads.
  • Protects prime agriculture lands and active farming operations from incompatible development.
  • Preserves strategic agriculture areas.
  • Supports compatible neighborhood development in current and future utility service areas.
  • Promotes a mixture of housing types in areas that area easily served by utilities, near commercial centers and compatible with existing development.
