Comprehensive Plan Public Meeting

The public is invited to the second round of public engagement meetings related to Columbia Imagined, the city's new comprehensive plan, Sept. 28 at 7 p.m. in conference room 1A/1B of City Hall. During this meeting, the public will hear presentations describing "Who Are We?". Following the presentations attendees will be asked to provide feedback on the topics covered. This feedback will be used to assist the Comprehensive Plan Task Force, Planning and Zoning Commission and staff in further developing the plan.

Presentation topics will include descriptions of "Who Are We?" in the following categories:

*         Sustainable/liveable communities

*         Mobility, connectivity and accessibility

*         Economic Development

*         Environmental management

*         Infrastructure

*         Intergovernmental management

*         Land use and growth management

Those interested in background information about the presentations should attend an informal question-and-answer session that will be held prior to the meeting at 6:30 p.m. that evening. Attendees can meet with members of the Comprehensive Plan Task Force, Planning and Zoning Commission and staff about the sources of information used to describe "Who Are We?". This session will include maps, charts, and graph displays for review.

Additional information is available by contacting the Planning Department at (573) 874-7239 or visiting the city's website at www.GoColumbiaMo.com. Citizens may also follow this process on Facebook@Columbia_Imagined or on Twitter@COMOimagined.
