Durham’s New Comprehensive Plan UpdateDurham is working on a new Comprehensive Plan, a long-range vision for our community! The Comprehensive Plan decides what can be built where in Durham.
Thank you for your input on draft Comprehensive Plan policies!The first engagement on draft policies that ran from late April through the end of June is now closed. Thank you to all the residents and staff who helped draft these policies, engaged residents on these drafts, and provided input on how to improve the draft policies! Over the next couple months, staff will be reviewing all the input received and working to make the final draft policies better align with resident perspectives, priorities, and with the adopted Community Goals and Objectives. Staff will also be drafting an engagement summary that shares how we engaged and who we heard from. The engagement summary will be published along with a full de-identified version of all the input we received during this phase.
More input opportunities will be coming! This recent engagement phase is not the end of opportunities for the community to review and provide feedback on the draft plan components. We will continue to take feedback and to incorporate feedback as we revise the draft policies this summer. In the fall we will release a draft of the full plan and will again seek feedback and incorporate revisions before the plan is brought to our elected officials for adoption. Residents will continue to have opportunities to review, ask questions, get answers, and provide comments up to and through the adoption process. We anticipate the adoption process will begin this winter (late 2022 or early 2023).
If you have feedback or questions, please feel free to contact [email protected] and please sign up for our mailing list to ensure you receive future project updates!
