The City of Spokane has launched a new website, Shaping Spokane, to share information about the updates they are making to the Comprehensive Plan.

The Comprehensive Plan is a 20-year vision for the City and a roadmap for Spokane’s future that sets the framework for physical, social, and economic development of the City. As such, it provides guidance for city development – the major land uses, transportation systems, parks, open spaces, and centers for shopping and employment, as well as where investment in utilities, capital facilities, and services will be needed. On or before June 30, 2017, the City must complete its periodic update to ensure compliance with the Growth Management Act (GMA).

All are invited to a series of open houses where staff will present updates to the chapters of the Plan. The purpose of each workshop is to inform the Commission of changes to the chapters and provide an opportunity for feedback.
