Yadkin County to advertise RFP for Land Use Plan update; cost estimates range $30k–$150k
Summary
County staff presented a draft RFP for updating the Land Use Plan and estimated a consultant‑assisted cleanup could cost $30,000–$50,000 while a full overhaul might approach $150,000; the boards discussed legal and cost tradeoffs and next steps.
County Manager Michael Silverman presented a draft request for proposals (RFP) on April 14 to hire consultant assistance to update Yadkin County’s Land Use Plan. Silverman said the cost depends on the scope: minor clean‑ups might cost roughly $30,000–$50,000, while a comprehensive rewrite could approach $150,000. He said the RFP would specify options and costs and that the County could choose not to accept any proposals if prices are too high.
Planning & Zoning staff (Brittany Anderson and Kaelan Everhart) previously summarized concerns with the existing plan and told the joint meeting that a consultant could help avoid legal missteps by ensuring compliance with current zoning statutes and by managing stakeholder outreach. Board members discussed fiscal caution alongside the value of outside expertise; the County Manager said responses to the advertised RFP would be submitted to the boards for review before any contract decision.
