The South Frederick Corridors Plan

The Planning Commission is starting review of the draft South Frederick Corridors Plan (SFCP) - a planning effort representing an important step toward realizing goals outlined in the Livable Frederick Master Plan (LFMP). The SFCP is a critical element of the County's strategy to preserve agricultural land and natural resources by creating attractive and comfortable places perfectly suited to serve needs of a variety of County residents and businesses. Meeting the challenge of determining our own future started with the LFMP and continues with the SFCP. To learn more about this blueprint for growing our County responsibly, the draft document and other information about the plan can be found on the project web page.
