The City of York is updating its Comprehensive Plan. The plan is an essential tool that guides community leaders and decision-makers based on the vision of community stakeholders.
York’s current Comprehensive Plan was last updated in 2017. Since then, the city has made meaningful progress, from neighborhoods and parks to improvements in transportation and infrastructure. The updated plan will build on this progress and help turn community ideas into action.
Citizen involvement is the cornerstone of York’s Comprehensive Plan Update. A successful plan is developed not just with the elected and appointed officials of the city but with the entire community who will help draft it and want to see it followed and maintained. This plan update should not be considered a static document but rather the result of a continuous process to gather and evaluate information and make informed decisions based on constantly changing conditions.
What makes York a unique place to live, work, and thrive takes thoughtful planning. Taking time now to share ideas and imagine the city’s future will help York continue to grow, adapt to new challenges, and stay ready for tomorrow.
