Indianapolis-Marion County Comprehensive Plan


Book Description

The Comprehensive Plan for Marion County presents the combined knowledge and common sense of over 700 residents, more than 30,000 hours of professional planning work by City-County staff, and the expertise and support of hundreds of community leaders. The comprehensive Plan is Marion County's most important guideline for making rational land use decisions. If closely observed, the Comprehensive Plan will help us achieve our long-term land use goals and avoid foreseeable problems. If ignored, the plan will only remind us of our failure to confront these problems when we had the opportunity.
