The county's comprehensive rezoning process began in 2010, when applicants submitted proposals to county planners for property rezoning.
Comprehensive rezoning differs from piecemeal rezoning in that it is a legislative rather than an administrative process. Neighbors are not notified of changes and the changes can not be appealed. Zoning changes the council votes for are final.
