zoning regulation that applies to their land. Subdivision Projects
The CLUP is a ten year plan for the Municipal Government of Canaman. Volume 3 of the CLUP, the Sectoral Studies, contains recommendations and strategies to respond to identified needs for
every sector, as well as integrated sectoral analyses to identify the most pressing concerns. Many of these recommendations and strategies have informed the Land Use Plan and Land Use
Policies, and are implemented in full through Volume 2, the Zoning Ordinance, through the regulation of land use and development.
There are, however, a number of recommendations and strategies arising from the CLUP that cannot be implemented through the Zoning Ordinance and instead require direct action from the
municipality. Below is a summary of the high priority actions needed for Canaman to achieve its vision, mission, goals and objectives, and to support the achievement of the land use plan. More
detail on these projects, and their relationship to the overall Land Use Plan, is provided in CLUP Volume One.
