The Orleans County Chamber of Commerce encourages the Orleans County Planning and Development Department and Board to partner with the Towns to implement and maintain a comprehensive and dynamic land use plan for all available land for agricultural, commercial, industrial, residential and recreational use.

The majority of the County should be prime farmlands protected by agricultural districts. The plan would also provide greenfield sites to attract new industries, designated areas for new housing development and existing housing areas for renewal. The plan should also include maintenance of the valuable natural and man made land and water resources that exist in and around the County. The plan should be reviewed and updated every five years to maintain optimum effectiveness.
