About the 2025 Comp Plan Update
San Juan County is making steady progress toward its 2025 Comprehensive Plan (Comp Plan) Update with support from a consultant team and a grant from the Department of Commerce. There are four phases of the 2025 Comp Plan Update: initiate, analyze, prepare, and finalize. The project is currently in phase two which includes analyzing population, housing needs, and land capacity for housing and employment, as well as updating transportation, capital facilities, and utilities inventories. The analyses and inventories will inform preparation of draft goals, policies and potential Official Map amendments. The project is currently on track for completion by June 30, 2025.
Next Steps
The DCD will continue to work with internal work groups, County committees, and external organizations in the upcoming months to gather input and prepare to begin working on policy amendments with the consultant in December.
