Excerpt from Land Potential Study, Nash County, North Carolina In June of 1967 the Nash County Board of Commissioners contracted with the Division of Community Planning for technical assistance in planning studies which would pro vide guidelines for the future growth and development of Nash County. Past development has been uncontrolled and allowed to grow in a haphazard manner. Through a series of planning studies, Nash County will be able to determine the needs of the county and to have an adopted plan to guide future growth. The county is presently working toward the adop tion of a zoning ordinance for certain selected sites with in the county. This is but one of the several studies that will be prepared. Five studies will be prepared for Nash County. They are: 1) Land Potential Study, 2) Economic Potential Study, 3) Land Development Plan, 4) Nash County Zoning Ordinance and 5) Nash County Subdivision Regulations. The Nash County Board of Commissioners appointed nine persons from various sections of the county to the Nash County Planning Board. This Board has no legislative authority, and its functions are to prepare the various studies, re view the studies and make recommendations to the Board of Commissioners.
