Months of work have culminated in a draft Comprehensive Plan for the City of Delaware to be considered before the City’s Planning Commission at a work session on Wednesday, March 17.

In February, Director of Planning & Community Development Dave Efland shared next steps relating to the Delaware Together Plan. He described the plan as a written expression of who and what Delaware wants to be as a community in the next 15 years. The goal of the process, Efland emphasized, is to align fiscal resources with planning.

Some 2,000 ideas were shared in the drafting process, he said, with the draft plan including 6 goals, 60 objectives, and over 230 separate action items.

The next phase, after the collection of opinions and comments from citizens — a process which has been ongoing for some time — is for submission to the Planning Commision of the revised plan.

That document has been published by the City as a part of Wednesday evening’s agenda, and can be read at the link below.

The meeting will begin at 6:30 PM and will be viewable on the City’s Facebook Page.
