General Plan 2050

The General Plan serves as a long-term policy guide for physical, economic, and environmental growth. It provides for the community's vision of the City's ultimate growth. The General Plan designates land use categories for the City. It also includes information on:

• General Uses
• Development
• Intensity
• Siting and Compatibility Standards

State law requires that every county and city prepare and adopt a long-range plan to serve as a guide for the development of the community. State Law only allows amendments to a General Plan four times per calendar year. Although there are limits on the number of times the General Plan can be amended, multiple amendments can be included in one meeting.

The General Plan 2050 was adopted by the City Council on March 25, 2008. City actions related to the following must be consistent with the General Plan:

• Land Use Allocations
• Annexations
• Zoning
• Subdivision and Design Review
• Redevelopment
• Capital Improvements
