WithersRavenel worked with the Town of Benson on the Comprehensive Plan, a document that serves as a blueprint for the community’s future. The principal design philosophy of this plan was that the document should be fundamentally shaped by those that live, work, and play within Benson.
Over the nine months developing the plan, WithersRavenel conducted iterative public outreach through workshops, interviews, and a project Stakeholder Group. During outreach, participants discussed values and goals associated with infrastructure, parks, and mobility. They also discussed land use and many other elements of the plan.
The resulting document provides a detailed analysis of historical and recent demographic trends, previous planning efforts, plan vision/goals, and recommended actions.
WithersRavenel developed a future land use map as part of this plan. The future land use plan included community-driven, professionally vetted designs for the Town’s future growth.
