The Comprehensive Plan Turns 30!

Happy 30th Anniversary Boulder County Comprehensive Plan
(1978-2008)!
2008 marks the 30 Anniversary of the Boulder County
Comprehensive Plan (BCCP), the advisory document for how
development gets approved in unincorporated Boulder County. The
BCCP was developed to respond to the widely accepted principle
that the myriad of future land use decisions affecting the
county's lands should be made in a coordinated and responsible
manner.
Since the BCCPs initial adoption in 1978, the overall
philosophy of the Plan has changed very little... Growth should
be channeled to municipalities, agricultural lands should be
protected, and preservation of our environmental and natural
resources should be a high priority in making land use
decisions.
