Town Planner Stages Process

Identifying Issue and Options

• The planner addresses the issue they are investigating. • Determine community issues by involving various community leaders,

community organizations, and ordinary citizens.

State goals, Objectives and Priorities• Goals are community visions. • Establish priorities for communities and help community leaders

make future decisions which will affect the city. • It requires the active participation of all people in the community.

Collecting and Interpret Data

• Data collected for a comprehensive plan include data about the environment, traffic, economic and social conditions, public services and utilities and land use conditions . • The data is collected, analyzed and studied.

Creating implementation plans• Different programs are thought of in order to implement the goals of

the plan. • These plans focus on issues such as cost and effectiveness. It is

possible that a variety of plans will result from this process in order to realize one goal. These different plans are known as alternatives.

Preparing the plan• The plan is prepared using the information gathered.• Plans contain separate sections for important issues such as

transportation or housing which follow the same standard format.

Evaluating alternatives• Each alternative should be evaluated by community leaders to ensure

the most efficient way to reach the goals. • Each alternative should be weighed given its potential positive and

negative effects, impacts on the community and the city government. • One alternative should be chosen that best meets the needs and

desires of the community and community leaders for meeting the community goals.

Adopting a plan

• The City Council needs to adopt the plan as an official statement of policy in order for it to take effect through public hearings. • The City Council may choose not to adopt the plan, which would

require planners to refine the work they did.

Implementing and monitoring the plan• Using the implementation plans defined in the earlier stages, the city

will carry out the goals in the comprehensive plan. • City planning staff monitor the outcomes of the plan and may propose

future changes if the results are not desired.
