Background
The current City Plan titled the "City Master Plan" was adopted in December 2017. Updating this plan started before 2017 with two primary missions. The first mission is to update the goals and strategies to make a more actionable plan rather than a policy document. The second mission is to shift the document to a web-based format.

We want to maximize the opportunity to connect with residents and visitors and make our plans more transparent to everyone. We hope everyone enjoys the new format.
