I'm in the process of drafting the County's comprehensive plan.
The history section, which seems to be a standard feature of many comp plans, is in the introductory section. I'm curious about how detailed or relevant a history section should be, though. Should it just focus on major events that affected a place's built environment, do you get into details such as "In 1806, the wife of early settler Jebidiah Springfield, Eunice, sewed the first county flag in her bedroom above her husband's tavern on Old Plank Road," or something in between?
