Comprehensive Plan
The Village regularly faces important decisions regarding growth, housing, transportation, neighborhood enhancements, and service delivery. The Comprehensive Plan serves as a guiding framework for making these decisions, outlining long-term goals for the Village’s future and establishing policies for daily decision-making.
Purpose of the Comprehensive Plan
The Indian Springs Village Comprehensive Plan (the “Plan”) provides a strategic framework for future growth, development, and redevelopment within the Village. It sets forth the Village’s official policies concerning land use, community design, transportation, housing, the natural environment, and community services, applying to both public and private properties. The Plan emphasizes the physical form and character of the Village.
The Plan is a critical tool used by the Village Council and Planning Commission to assess land use changes and inform funding and budgetary decisions. It guides building and development processes and serves as the foundation for recommendations on projects. Furthermore, the Plan supports the Village’s zoning and subdivision regulations, ensuring cohesive development within the Village limits and influencing areas in unincorporated Shelby County. While properties in unincorporated Shelby County are not required to comply with the Plan, mutual collaboration offers benefits to both the Village and the County.
