Updating the City’s Comprehensive Plan and Development Regulations
Project Overview
The City of Asheville is beginning a multi-year effort to update the Living Asheville Comprehensive Plan and rewrite its development regulations. This work will reflect where Asheville is today and align City rules with the community’s shared vision for the future.
This project supports a stronger, more resilient Asheville by:
- Updating the 2018 Comprehensive plan using current data and guidance from recently adopted plans, policies, reports, and Helene Recovery data.
- Creating new development regulations that reflect the goals and priorities in the Comprehensive Plan.
- Identifying updates needed to the Future Land Use Map and other documents used to guide land use decisions.
- Developing strategies that support long term resilience and recovery.
- Making the development codes and guidelines easier to understand and use for future generations.
