Long-Range Planning
Wingard Planning specializes in modernizing local zoning ordinances and development codes to achieve clear and concise land use regulations that create incentives for builders to "do the right thing".  If projects in your community fall noticeably short of fulfilling existing comprehensive plan goals and policies, it may be time for a code update, or even an entire ordinance overhaul.  Or, if your community's master plan is outdated - no longer reflecting public sentiments regarding future growth in your area, a comprehensive plan update together with fresh implementing ordinances may be the right call.

Employing proven techniques that assure success, Wingard Planning will assist communities in revising development codes that lack purpose, definition or flexibility and pose needless barriers to sustainable development practices.  Wingard Planning will design efficient and effective public involvement strategies and visioning programs to guide communities through a plan amendment or code update process, or both.
