Smart growth strategies for sustainable development and community resilience
ReEnvision-ing Victor Comprehensive Plan and Transportation Plan
The ReEnvision Victor Comprehensive Plan in the city of Victor, Idaho, shifted perspectives on growth and incentivizing densification as a strategy for mitigating the impacts of outward growth. In addition to the Area of City Impact, the city implemented a Growth Management Area (GMA) that was aligned with water and sewer infrastructure. The plan also accounted for anticipated growth rates and other hazards to logistically “set a ring” for future development.
Additional benefits to the GMA include minimization of impacts to infrastructure and fiscal resources, wildlife habitat, and surrounding agricultural lands. In addition, a transportation plan complimented the comprehensive plan.
