Community Strategic Plan 2030
Community Strategic Plan 2030
In July 2019, Buncombe County began constructing its first five-year strategic plan. Now, the County looks to build on that momentum with updated focus areas and goals for its next five-year strategic plan, mapping out the path forward through 2030.
Community members are invited to take part in mobile sessions, 30-minute meetings, and focused one-hour sessions. Input gathered during these opportunities will be provided to the Buncombe County Board of Commissioners, who will in turn use that input to generate measurable goals. This fall, community members will have an opportunity to provide feedback on draft goals, ensuring the final plan represents the community's vision for Buncombe County through 2030. The 2030 Strategic Plan works in tandem with the Comprehensive Plan 2043, which guides County land use and development. Moving forward, the County's Racial Equity Action Plan will no longer be a standalone document; instead, goals from both it and key recommendations from the Cease the Harm Audit will be rolled into the 2030 Strategic Plan. The plan will also incorporate results from a community-wide survey conducted in Spring 2024.
