And utilizes Goals and Policies to drive development regulations Et decisions. Internal consistency: because the Land Use Element is tied to other elements in the comprehensive plan, many periodic updates include amendments to the Land Use Element. Mapping of land use designations, and the future shape of the community. Resource lands, critical areas, open space corridors, mixed use areas, residential, commercial, industrial, and major public and private facilities should all be addressed. Recent amendments to the GMA now require communities to consider urban planning approaches that promote physical activit as part of the land use element wherever possible.
