Acting upon such issues as growth, transportation, environmental protection, agriculture, historical preservation and forest conservation, the Planning Board affects your everyday life. In fact, the Board is largely responsible for setting land use and protecting parkland resources throughout the 323,000-acre county.

The Department recognizes the importance of providing residents with safe and accessible places to gather, enjoy the outdoors, and participate in healthy, recreational activities.
