REGIONAL PLANNING

COORDINATED PLANNING

Coordinated planning at regional and local levels helps to reduce long-term costs to Burlington County taxpayers and enhance quality of life by:
• Developing in the right areas
• Avoiding development in the wrong areas, i.e., rural and environmentally sensitive areas
• Redeveloping sites to bring them back to productivity and increase value
• Preserving land that defines Burlington County’s high quality of life, i.e., farmland and open space

 
APPROACH TO PLANNING
Achieving the right balance of growth and preservation requires a sustained, concerted planning effort that is coordinated with the county and its municipalities. Developing thoughtful plans that apply a “bottom-up”, “consensus-based” approach forms a strong foundation for planning the future of Burlington County.
