Coconino County Comprehensive Plan
Coconino County Comprehensive Plan is the mother of all the Plans developed and nurtured by County officials and residents.
Coconino County is big on planning... and that's a good thing... but somehow... in my mind, the top photo has come to represent the planning process.
The Coconino County Community Development Department is responsible for most planning. In addition to the Community Development operation, specialized plans are developed and updated by other departments, including Public Works and Parks & Recreation.
