Scottsdale General PLan 2011

The Scottsdale General Plan 2011 has been created through a community outreach and public hearing process.  It occurred between 2009 - 2011.  The plan is primarily an update of the Council-adopted and voter-ratified City of Scottsdale General Plan 2001 that is already in place. Thus, the majority of the 2011 plan includes goals and policies retained from the City of Scottsdale General Plan 2001.

A Council-directed 19 member citizen working group reviewed and modified by consensus every goal and policy in the update.

• Adopted by City Council on Oct. 25, 2011
