The Plan reflects the community's vision for the future and provides direction through the year 2045. The housing element was updated in 2022 and will be included in the GPU. The 2045 GPU will provide the context to effectively plan and manage the city’s growth based on an updated set of goals, policies, and implementation actions that reflect the community’s values and aspirations for the future. Additionally, the update will equip the City with a policy framework to manage future projects and ensure that there is development capacity to accommodate the anticipated growth to occur in the city for the next 25 years.
