Impact analysis
Unimplemented plans represent years of community engagement and planning dollars with limited return; members want prioritization so county investment actually moves projects.
County staff and the planning board, who would manage fewer, simpler plan documents.
Potentially residents, if large consolidated plans dilute local engagement and neighborhood-specific focus.
