2008 Comprehensive Plan Update

As required by State statute, the City of Roseville has set in motion the updating of its Comprehensive Plan. The City's Comprehensive Plan is a policy guide that provides strategies to help direct community change toward a common community vision. Topics covered by the Comprehensive Plan include future land use, transportation, the environment, parks and recreations, and economic development. 

In September 2007, the City Council retained Hoisington Koegler Group Inc. to work with City Staff to prepare the update. The Council also appointed a Steering Committee to work with the consulting group and act as a sounding board for ideas and recommendations prior to bringing them to policymakers. The goal is to submit the updated plan to the Metropolitan Council by December 2008.

If you would like to be kept up-to-date on the process, please sign up to receive email notifications.
