| Abstract | This study identifies key relationships between local planning agencies and statewide and/or regional scenic byway programs, and provides informal guidance and information for local planning agencies in support of these programs. Representative scenic byway programs are reviewed as they affect local planning agencies, and relationships are identified. Based on these planning relationships, a process is described which portrays how local citizens and planning agencies can participate in planning a scenic byway. Local governments and their planning agencies can have a significant role in designation and management of a scenic byway. Depending on the nature of enabling state legislation, designation may be done at the state level, and scenic corridor management and maintenance at the local level. Usually, states will support the preparation and implementation of a scenic byway plan. In some cases, however, local goernments prapre such plans on their own or with the assistance of consultants, citizen groups, private organizations, or other local government agencies. |
