This Article shall apply to all unincorporated areas of Washington County, except
as otherwise provided by law. A Planned Growth Area is an unincorporated area adjoining
the corporate limits of a municipality in which the authority to control the development
of land is vested and is now or hereafter exercised by the municipality in accordance
with the provisions of Act 186 of 1957 as amended.
The limits of the Planned Growth Area are those now being or hereafter exercised by
a city, with a maximum of five (5) miles from the city limits or one-half (½) the
distance to the city limits of the next city, whichever is the lesser.
A copy of all proposed land development plans within the Planned Growth Areas shall
be submitted to the Washington County Planning Office. Developments and improvements
in these Planned Growth Areas are still located in the unincorporated area of Washington
County, therefore remain under the jurisdiction of Washington County for maintenance
of roads, etc.
