Description: "This report presents a year 2000 land use development plan for Madison, St. Clair and Monroe Counties, Illinois. The land use plan is based on an analysis of the region's physical and socio-economic characteristics, and reflects an extension of existing population, employment, and development trends. The plan is intended to serve as a guide for the region's future growth, and also as a uniform planning basis for the continuous update and review of intra-regional comprehensive and functional plans. Therefore, every attempt has been made to coordinate the previous efforts of the many organizations engaged in the planning activities in the three-county region. This report also presents a conceptualized alternative growth pattern. The conceptual alternative considers the possible impacts of a number of still speculative development proposals, and presents schematically the probable alterations in projected land use which could result from their implementation."--Preliminary page.
