The planning process to officially designate Odell as an urban unincorporated community has advanced to Phase II. This stage focuses on developing a long-term vision to support the housing needs of current residents and workers, finalize community boundaries, and establish future zoning designations and development standards.

Unincorporated community plans are designed to allow specific areas to tailor land-use planning to their unique local needs. The current phase of the Odell plan aims to create a framework that addresses diverse housing options, ensuring the community can accommodate those who live and work there.

The scope of work for Phase II includes defining the final community boundary, which will delineate the area officially recognized as the urban unincorporated community. Additionally, planners will determine future zoning designations that will guide development and establish specific development standards to ensure growth aligns with the community's vision.

Further details regarding the specific timelines and public engagement opportunities for Phase II are expected to be released as the planning process progresses.
