Planning staff preview comprehensive-plan update and new building code adoption
Summary
Planning staff said the county will update its comprehensive plan and adopt a newer building code to replace the 2012 code; staff described this as a forthcoming, multi-step planning effort rather than an immediate policy change.
A planning staff member said Greene County expects to update its comprehensive plan next year and to adopt a newer building code to replace the county's current 2012 code.
"Probably most excited this next year for our update for our comprehensive plan. We're also going to adopt a new building code. We've been in 2012 for a long time," the planner said, summarizing departmental priorities for the coming year.
The comments were informational; the huddle recorded no formal adoption, ordinance text or vote. Staff characterized the work as part of a longer-range planning schedule and indicated related process items (public engagement, code review) will follow in the coming months.
