The Town of Beaufort is seeking proposals from qualified, professional consultants who will assist the Town in concurrently creating a Comprehensive Land Use Plan and Unified Development Ordinance.
The current Land Development Ordinance was adopted in 2013, and though there have been amendments over the years, the town would like to transition to a cleaner, consolidated Unified Development Ordinance. The Unified Development Ordinance will consolidate the Land Development Ordinance standards, Subdivision Ordinance and Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance into one comprehensive document.
The existing Comprehensive Land Use Plan for the Town was developed in 2007, with few updates since. There have been significant changes to the Town and surrounding areas since the plan’s original inception.
The selected consultants will assist the Town in the development of a CAMA certified comprehensive land use plan for land use that incorporates land use and transportation plans previously adopted by the Town of Beaufort, responsible development and natural resource conservation while creating the policy framework for intelligent growth over a 25-year planning horizon.
The consultant(s) awarded this contract will have the primary responsibility of developing the Comprehensive Land Use Plan document and Unified Development Ordinance and will work in coordination with the Town of Beaufort’s Planning and Inspections Department.
Please see the attached document for the full RFP.
