Are you interested in learning more about the City of Talent Buildable Lands Inventory? Our Buildable Lands Inventory (BLI) aims to establish current conditions within a city and measure how much buildable land exists within a city. This process provides a snapshot of how much development a city currently has and what development can take place given existing Zoning, Comprehensive Plan Designations, environmental constraints, and other development considerations.

Don’t forget to take our survey! Help us understand how best to interact with the data. By taking the survey on the following link, you can help our city and community understand how to interpret and implement the data from the BLI.
