What is a County Master Plan

A Master Plan is a long range plan to guide the physical development of a geographic area.  It takes into consideration land use, transportation, environmental and water resources, housing, utilities, community facilities, parks and recreation, economic development, historic resources and other factors.  Preparation of a County Master Plan falls under the power granted by the New Jersey County Planning Enabling Act.  The Bergen County Master Plan will seek to conserve scarce resources and achieve sustainability (i.e. meet the needs of the present while ensuring that future generations have the same or better opportunities).
