The Comprehensive Plan is updated every ten (10) years and helps guide areas of future residen- tial neighborhoods and business districts. This plan will help determine what areas may see future development and what areas may remain as they are today. This is a great opportunity for residents to get involved in shaping the future of the community. This plan will help determine the future of neighborhoods such as The COR, south of Highway 10/west of Armstrong Boulevard, south of Highway 10 near Sunfish Lake Boulevard, and many more. This plan is also anticipated to create a robust Parks and Recreation Plan for the community. Other potential discussion topics include corridor plans for key transporta- tion corridors such as Highway 47 and Nowthen Boulevard. The Steering Committee is anticipated to meet quarterly through 2018, or more frequently as needed. For more information, or an application to indicate your interest, contact Tim Gladhill, Community Devel- opment Director, at tgladhill@cityoframsey.com or 763- 433-9826.
