The report emphasizes the need for immediate improvements to alleviate congestion and better utilize existing resources.

Title A name given to the resource 1964 Economic Growth Planning and Zoning Report Subject The topic of the resource Comprehensive Planning Description An account of the resource Greenville, South Carolina's planning and zoning framework focuses on regulating land use, building dimensions, and population density to foster sustainable growth. Established in 1944 and revised in 1951, Greenville’s Zoning Ordinance divides the city into residential, commercial, and industrial zones. The ordinance specifies allowable land uses and building regulations for each zone, aiming to prevent unregulated growth and ensure community safety, convenience, and livability. For example, two-family dwellings are permitted in certain residential zones but prohibited in heavy industrial areas. The Planning and Zoning Commission plays a pivotal role in approving subdivision developments, ensuring that streets, drainage, and utilities are properly planned before a project is authorized. Developers within city limits must install infrastructure such as roads and sanitary sewers, while those outside the city, within three miles, only need to grade streets. Variances from zoning laws may be granted in special cases where strict adherence causes hardship, while public hearings determine if certain non-conforming uses can be permitted. Greenville's economic and population growth indicators demonstrate substantial development, with significant increases in population, bank debits, building permits, and retail sales, highlighting its strong commercial standing in South Carolina and beyond.
