Land Use Plan Update
The Lagrange Township Trustees Board is seeking to hire professional consulting services (“Consultant”) to assist in its 2010 Land Use Plan (“LUP”) review and develop an updated Township LUP. As part of this process, the Township Board established a steering committee to oversee current LUP review, associated discussions, and oversee new LUP development and publication. The Township Board is also seeking the Consultant’s recommendations to modernize the Township’s zoning map, language, and standards within the current zoning map and guide that will better reflect the new LUP.
