The General Plan is the City’s blueprint for development. It serves as a general guideline for decision making regarding the progress and growth of a city. It documents the city’s long-range vision while establishing clear goals, objectives, and actions to guide the community through years of change.
It is updated every several years, with the most recent update occurring in December 2013. The current process began in the winter of 2018-19 (see “What does the General Plan process look like?” below). The most recent major discussion took place as the consultant presented at the Joint Planning Commission/City Council Meeting on December 16, 2020. You can find a video of that presentation at this link.
Now, the consultant is putting together a draft of a new general plan, combining months of input from residents and community leaders. Watch City Council and Planning Commission meeting agendas for upcoming discussions.
