The Community Planning Intern is a full time member of the Alliance team for the summer of 2016 and will work under the guidance of the Community Planning Director to analyze and map permitted development build out.

One of the foundational policies of the Jackson/ Teton County Comprehensive Plan (Comp Plan) states, “Community character will be preserved by limiting overall development in the community to the amount that has been allowed and planned for since 1994.” In order to gain an understanding of development potential allowed and planned for since 1994, Town and County planning staff worked with a committee of citizens to develop a reasonably credible estimate of remaining residential and commercial development potential allowed under the 1994 land development regulations.

The Community Planning and Development Intern will analyze and verify the methodology used to determine remaining development potential, or if unavailable, create a new credible methodology; examine and clarify how much residential, commercial, and resort master plan development potential exists today; then map this potential and compare it to relevant Town and County policies to analyze alignment with the goals and policies of the Comp Plan.
