Planning
Controlling future development while maintaining the community character is a priority of the Department of Planning and Community Development. The department directs the community according to a path which is set forth in the Comprehensive Plan, and reviewed by the Planning Commission every ten years. One current project born out of the latest Comprehensive Plan is the Sidewalks and Bikeways Plan that, although in its early stages of development, is designed to bring a functional network of sidewalks to the community.
