Meeting Notes
It was agreed that our legacy of downtown plans has served us well, and that the 2009
Downtown Improvement Plan has been particularly effective and is still extremely relevant as a guiding document.
There is a tremendous amount of community planning currently scheduled and/or underway
including:
1. City Strategic Plan 2. City Growth Policy
3. Unified Development Code (UDC) Update
4. Neighborhood Conservation Overlay District (NCOD) Update
5. Affordable Housing Plan
6. Downtown Strategic Parking Management Plan (adopted and being implemented)
Considering the continued validity of the 2009 Downtown Plan and the myriad of other plan
revisions, there is no need to update the Downtown Plan at this time. Until such time, it is
imperative that the Downtown Partnership member organizations (BID, DBA, URD) be informed
and engaged in the six planning processes outlined above to ensure the continued growth and vibrancy of downtown remains a priority.
Next Steps:
1. Chris will compile a reference document describing each of the pending planning processes
2. BID/URD stakeholders (business and property owners) meeting(s) will be held to
educate our constituents about the planning processes and their relevance to downtown
3. Chris and boards will develop strategies to actively participate in the relevant
planning processes
