Warren County North Carolina is updating its Comprehensive Plan to guide future growth and development over the next 20 years, and they want your input!

Warren County is starting a new phase in its comprehensive development plan process. These comprehensive development plan updates are a ten-month process that will result in updates to the existing 2002 plan, which was meant to run through 2022.

Public participation will play a key role through these conversations and feedback. The comprehensive development plan will help to shape the vision and priorities for the future of Warren County.

Warren County’s comprehensive development plan team is conducting a survey that will be available through the end of March 2022. Find a link to the survey via the county’s website warrencountync.com.

The survey can also be found online at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/WarrenCo_CLUP_Survey.

Hard copies of the survey can also be found at the Warren County Administration Building (602 W Ridgeway St, Warrenton), Warren County Memorial Library (119 Front St, Warrenton), and the Warren County Senior Center (435 W Franklin St, Warrenton).

Participants may fill out the survey and either scan, mail, or return their responses in person to the Warren County Planning and Code Enforcement office located at 542 West Ridgeway Street in Warrenton, NC 27589. If you would like to scan the copy of a survey, please email your completed copy to compplan@warrencountync.gov.

​The Comprehensive Development Plan will update the 2002 Land Development Plan and address new issues and priorities that have come forward in the years since then. The Plan may address several topics as determined by the community but generally a Land Use Plan addresses land use, housing, infrastructure, transportation, economic development, agriculture, recreation, and natural resources. This is a guiding document upon which land use decisions are based.

To follow along with the comprehensive plan process, visit planwarrencountync.com. For more information, contact the Warren County comp plan team at compplan@warrencountync.gov.

The NC Rural Center has opened the application period for its Rural Economic Development Institute (REDI), the organization’s flagship leadership development program. Current and emerging leaders across the state are invited to apply.

Since its founding in 1990, the three-month intensive training program has helped nearly 1,200 people develop skills and increase their knowledge of economic and community development strategies, equipping them with the tools they need to tackle challenges in their rural communities.

β€œRural communities need strong leadership to thrive,” said Olaunda Green, director of leadership training at the Rural Center. β€œWe’re proud to provide training opportunities that not only equip established leaders but also emerging leaders who will greatly impact the future of rural North Carolina.”

Each year REDI welcomes local, state, and federal government staff, nonprofit and faith-based leaders, business owners, elected officials, economic development professionals, and other community-minded people for nine days of intensive rural community economic development training. Graduates of REDI join an extensive alumni network that spans all of North Carolina’s 100 counties and includes graduates from the Rural Center’s other leadership training program, Homegrown Leaders. Many of the Center’s leadership alumni are active in state and local government, and in philanthropic, nonprofit, and small-business sectors, as well as in faith and community-based organizations.

Applications will be available on the REDI webpage and accepted through September 15.
