§ 3208. Neighborhood and community-wide plans

• (a) A municipality or a planning commission may prepare a general neighborhood renewal
  plan for an urban renewal area, together with any adjoining areas having specially
  related problems, which may be of such scope that urban renewal activities may have
  to be carried out in stages. The plan may include a preliminary plan which: (1) outlines the urban renewal activities, proposed for the areas involved; (2) provides a framework for the preparation of urban renewal plans; and (3) indicates generally the land uses, population density, building coverage, prospective
  requirements for rehabilitation, and improvement of property and portions of the area
  contemplated for clearance and redevelopment. A general neighborhood renewal plan shall, in the determination of the local governing
  body, conform to the general plan of the locality as a whole and the workable program
  of the municipality. (b) A municipality or planning commission may prepare or complete a community-wide plan
  or program for urban renewal which shall conform to the general plan for the development
  of the municipality as a whole and may include identification of slum or blighted
  areas, measurement of blight, determination of resources needed and available to renew
  those areas, identification of potential project areas and types of action contemplated,
  and scheduling of urban renewal activities. (Added 1966, No. 69 (Sp. Sess.), § 5, eff. March 14, 1966.)
