Grenada County Build Better Together 2040 Plan

Introduction

This Housing and Development portion of the Grenada County 2040 Plan focuses on eight key planning
concerns:
 Development opportunities and redevelopment/infill needs.

 Methods for preserving and elevating community and neighborhood character, along with ensuring basic
land use compatibility.
 Barriers to desired local housing development.

 Affordability challenges for potential buyers and renters.
 Integrity of existing neighborhoods, and effective design elements to carry over to new residential
development.
 Site and building design practices that contribute to quality development and other community objectives.
 Potential additions to the local government “toolbox” for managing growth and approving development
consistent with community objectives and plan policies.
 Appropriate siting and design of future community facilities.
