Agenda Item Summary:
The City’s Comprehensive Plan establishes the long term vision and goals for the community, and sets forth a growth framework and recommendations to meet those goals. The current Comprehensive Plan was adopted in 2014 and has been instrumental in guiding policy, growth, and the general direction of the City since that time. With the passage of time, and our community’s growth over the last several years, it’s time to review and update the Comprehensive Plan. The Community Development Department budgeted and allocated funds for 2023 to initiate the project. A Request for Proposals (RFP) was approved by the City Council on July 17th and released to solicit proposals from qualified consultants. Three proposals were received and the highest scoring proposal among reviewers was that of Logan Simpson’s. The Scope of Work is detailed in the proposal but generally includes 15 overarching tasks to occur from January of 2024 to September 2025.
