What is a General Plan Update?

A General Plan is a long-range planning document that identifies a community’s priorities for how a city grows and is developed into the future. It sets goals for housing, land use, transportation, parks, safety, the environment, and infrastructure. The document is comprehensive and reflects the community values and priorities to shape a healthy, livable, and economically resilient community.
