Summary

"The Regional Land Use Plan presents land use objectives that are considered both desirable and feasible for the Region and provides a functional guide for growth of the planning area. The systematic approach assures a proper balance of space for living, working and recreation. The Plan is not intended to serve as a rigid pattern for development but as a flexible guide that may be modified as required by changing conditions. Determination of future land use needs was based on analysis of existing land use studies conducted by the Planning Agency in 1968 and 1969: studies by other public agencies of the Region, supplemented by field surveys to ascertain changes resulting from Hurricane Camille; space requirements indicated by the regional Population and Economic Study; man-made and/or physiographical considerations which direct or influence physical growth; community facilities, public utilities and transportation systems; open space and recreational requirements; environmental aspects of land use, and other factors which determine nature and character of regional development. Studies Conducted by others were used to the maximum extent possible."
