The Frederick County Comprehensive Plan (The Plan) addresses the future growth of Frederick County for its citizens, highlights its rich history, and strives to further this great community. The Plan is guided by the Vision Statement and Core Values crafted and adopted by the Frederick County Board of Supervisors. The Plan contains chapters that focus on particular aspects of the County's Vision for the Future. The chapters address: Urban Areas, Rural Areas, Residential Development, Business Development, Transportation, Public Facilities, Natural Resources, and Historic Resources. The chapters of The Plan are simple, each describes where we are today and where we see ourselves in the future. The Chapters provide goals and strategies of implementation, and they illustrate the benefits of the implementation of this focus for the future.
The Plan is supported by two Appendices: Appendix I includes the County’s Area Plans, these area plans are the key land use planning documents which implement the policies of the Plan in specific, geographic areas of the County. Appendix II provides background analysis and studies in support of The Plan.
