Vision SMTX Comprehensive Plan Adopted 2024

A COMMUNITY-BASED VISION

THE PLANNING PROCESS The City staff and consultant planning team have been collecting input from the Comprehensive Plan Steering Committee (CPSC), community, and focus groups on developing the draft vision, goals, and guiding principles which are foundational components for Vision SMTX. These components helped set the stage for the draft Preferred Growth Scenario Map created through this project along with creating strategies and action items for the ten planning elements. Next, more detailed recommendations and strategies for the planning elements and a series of Place Types were derived from the combinations of high-level land use and land use intensity included in the Preferred Growth Scenario Map. The Area Plan development process then began while the planning team worked on a strategic implementation strategy for the Comprehensive Plan. The last phase of the planning process included writing, refining, and revising the Vision SMTX Comprehensive Plan, which was refined in February 2023 based on input and feedback from the community, staff, and leadership. Additional details on the community engagement process can be found in the Appendix.
