Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1. Scope requirements
  • 1.1. Reasons for development of a regional plan are determined to identify broad goals and legislative requirements.
  • 1.2. Prior regional planning work is identified as input to proposed regional planning process.
2. Determine regional boundaries
