Specifications include, but are not limited to: The comprehensive plan is a long-range policy-oriented planning document that gives guidance and vision to all decision-makers that affect the development, functionality and well-being of the built community. It becomes the community’s collective vison and reference for fiscally responsible growth. This RFP is not seeking a complete rewrite of the current plan and associated maps, rather an update of information (current conditions, strategic goals and objectives, land development strategy areas, implementation techniques, and assorted tables and relevant figures/materials). The update shall create a new current and future land-use and zoning map reflective of the goals and objectives of the community today and into the future. For reference, https://laporteco.in.gov/Resources/Planner/LaPorteCountyLandDevPlan.pdf is the current plan. All mandatory elements as required by IC 3-7-4-502 and other shall be followed. There should be a steering committee created and 2-3 public meetings prior to acceptance via a public hearing of the plan by the Counties Planning Commission.
