Specify the timing and sequence of major local public investments. □ The CIP must align with development staging identified in other parts of your plan and include budgets and expenditure schedules. □ Describe all relevant official controls addressing at least zoning, subdivision, water supply, and private sewer systems. □ Include a schedule for the preparation, adoption, and administration of needed changes to official controls. □ Include your local zoning map and zoning category descriptions. Identify what changes are needed to ensure zoning is not in conflict with your new land use plan and consistent with regional system plans and policies. □ Review and update official controls within 9 months of adopting your 2040 plan. Official controls must not be in conflict with your updated plan. You must provide copies of all revised official controls to us. □ The Housing Plan Element has implementation requirements as well. Refer to that section to ensure that implementation requirements for the Housing Action Plan are met. For Diversified Rural Communities with Flexible Development Ordinances: □ You must be consistent with the Flexible Development Guidelines adopted in August 2008. These guidelines apply to Diversified Rural communities with staging areas for future urbanization identified as Long Term Service Areas for regional wastewater services. If you have local ordinances that allow densities greater than 1 unit per 10 acres, such as open space ordinances, cluster developments, or density bonuses, (or other similar ordinances) you should review these guidelines.
