Using the Plans We Paid For
Canby residents invest significant resources in developing comprehensive plans to guide our city’s growth and development. From the state-mandated Comprehensive Plan to more specific strategies like the Parks and Recreation Master Plan and Transit Master Plan, these documents represent our community’s vision for the future. The latest development of Canby’s Comprehensive plan is currently underway which also include Transportation Plan and Urban Growth Boundary. You can participate and review progress here.
Unfortunately, we often fall short of effectively implementing these plans. Valuable time and taxpayer dollars are wasted on projects that deviate from our established goals. By prioritizing the recommendations outlined in our existing plans, we can make more informed decisions, avoid costly mistakes, and deliver the results Canby residents deserve.
It’s crucial that we:
- Engage the community: Understand and incorporate residents’ priorities into our plans.
- Communicate effectively: Share plan details and progress openly with the public.
- Stay on course: Consistently measure our actions against plan objectives.
- Deliver results: Implement plans efficiently and transparently.
By following these principles, we can ensure that Canby’s investments in planning lead to tangible improvements for our community.
Some current plans are:
Parks and Recreation Master Plan
Heritage and Landmark Commission
Canby Housing and Economic Development Opportunities Assessment
