Public Engagement Process

Community meetings will be held in areas where there are inconsistencies between the Plan’s future land use map and current zoning and/or changing growth and development patterns. The community meetings will be held to provide an overview of the comprehensive plan, it’s overarching land use policy, the scope of the five-year review, future land use (FLU) map inconsistencies, and engage the public on potential amendments to the FLU map via an online survey.

The online survey is designed to gauge the public’s preference for development densities in identified areas from the FLU map analysis. The community meetings will be formatted as a hybrid including a structured presentation, mapping exhibits and allowing residents to drop-in, engage with planning staff and submit comments.

Public Engagement Opportunities and Comment Periods

There will be public meetings held throughout Greenville County communities in an effort to inform and involve residents about updates that affect everyone. We value everyone's input, so if you have any questions or comments about Five year review, please feel free to leave it here under the blog post "Five Year Review comments" as it's header. County staff will be able to answer your questions.

FLU Map Analysis

 Map produced by MKSK  

A central component of the comprehensive plan is the future land use (FLU) map. The 2020 Plan Greenville County FLU map divides land into five different major land use categories referred to as character areas and subareas called place types. Each of the character areas and place types are color coded and vary based on recommended primary uses, secondary uses, gross density, transportation, parking and open space.

Essentially, the FLU map is a visual representation of how land should be used in the future based on 2020 Plan Greenville County comprehensive plan’s broader policy to focus growth in areas with existing infrastructure and support the expansion of urbanized areas through coordinated investments in infrastructure and community service enhancements.
