A </span></span><span dir="auto" style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span dir="auto" style="vertical-align: inherit;">county integrated development plan</span></span><span dir="auto" style="vertical-align: inherit;"><span dir="auto" style="vertical-align: inherit;"> is useful in this context because it brings multiple sectors and development priorities into one coordinated framework. It can connect proposed projects with available resources, timelines, and measurable objectives. The plan can also support transparency by providing information about planned activities and expected outcomes. Through public consultation, local residents can contribute their views about important community needs. This makes the planning process more organized and provides a basis for monitoring development activities.</span></span>
