Plans and Studies

  • P&D__Zoning Imagine Westerville! Community Plan

A Comprehensive Community Plan is a document that outlines a community’s vision of its future by the residents, workers, visitors, businesses, and community leaders. A Comprehensive Community Plan uses this vision as a means to work toward economic, social, and environmental stability. Positive growth is also a City’s primary guide to assess the location, character, and extent of proposed public and private development – as a framework, not a rule book. City Council adopts the accepted final document.
