NORTHWEST TEMPE
COMMUNITY PLAN

 

Development Services has initiated a General Plan Amendment request for the Northwest Tempe Community Plan (NWTCP).


The proposed NWTCP is the document developed by the community and includes all comments, changes and additions agreed upon by residents at public meetings. This document will be forwarded to the Development Review Commission and City Council for consideration.
 

As with all General Plan Amendment requests, staff representing departments throughout the city have reviewed and commented on the proposed plan. Based on this input, Development Services has prepared written comments and organized them according to the following categories:
  • Strategies that are appropriate for a Community Plan document;
  • Strategies that, as written may conflict with current City policies or guidelines;
  • Strategies that, as written, are too specific for a Community Plan;
  • Strategies that City Council may wish to take action on separately from the Community Plan which is intended to serve as a policy document.
The NWTCP articulates the community's vision for the Northwest Tempe area and is the product of the passion and commitment of area residents, property owners and business owners.  Recommendations made by staff are intended to support the community's vision while acknowledging the role of the Community Plan as a policy document.  Staff is recommending that the DRC continue the case to allow the recommended changes to be made to the document.  The full DRC agenda with links to case documents and reports can be accessed at:  www.tempe.gov/planning/BoardsCommission.htm


Residents are invited to provide additional comments throughout the General Plan Amendment process, either prior to or at the DRC and City Council public hearings. All comments received prior to a hearing will be included in the case packet to the Commission and/or Council.
