Excerpts from the Q&A
Public: It says the way land and buildings are developed.
Is that government land buildings or is that privately held land and buildings?
City of Davenport: That would be both.
City of Davenport: In a sense if this were adopted as part of a comprehensive plan, then it gives it a little more impetus, I guess would be one way to say it, to say, Okay, here's another thing that says you should be doing this. And it's for the betterment for basically the health and safety of the people that live in Davenport, or in this case Scott County.
Scott County: By the very nature [these plans] sometimes have competing or contradictory aspects to them. And that's up to the political process to make a determination.
