A comprehensive plan is a 10–20-year roadmap for the future of our county. It guides development and growth while reflecting the priorities and concerns of residents, businesses, non-profits, and public agencies. Elmore County is currently updating this plan, and your input is important to us. Click the icon above to learn how you can get involved and help shape the future of our community.
