Land Use Planning
In conjunction with the Economic Development Plan, the Office of Environmental
Services is developing a Comprehensive Plan for Tribal land use. This plan will
define how Tribal lands should be developed over the next ten years.
The Office of Environmental Services is developing a Comprehensive Plan for
Tribal land use. Sections of The Comprehensive Plan will evaluate areas such
as population projections, economic data, housing, community resources, the
natural environment, cultural preservation, transportation, and existing land
utilization. From these sections, a fully developed land use plan will be
developed which will define how Tribal lands should be developed. The Plan will
cover a ten-year window, be reviewed annually, and updated every two years.
The Comprehensive Plan is a valid document on which to base land use rules, such
as zoning and sub-division regulations, as well as a guide to aid in the efficient
use of Tribal resources, such as capital improvement programs, housing plans and
budgets. This plan is closely associated with
Economic Development.
