Seward Tomorrow Comprehensive Plan Approved

The project team would like to acknowledge the contributions of the residents of Seward who gave their time, ideas, and expertise for the creation of this plan. It is only with their assistance and direction that this plan gained the necessary depth to truly represent the spirit of the community and it is with their commitment that the plan will be implemented. The final plan is available below.

April Design Workshops – Planning in Action

Thanks for everyone who participated in the April Open House Events. Over the course of two days (April 18th and 19th), the planning team explored physical opportunities and constraints related to the future growth of Seward over the next 10 to 20 years. Much of this time was spent exploring areas of the community, talking to stakeholders including landowners, and developing ideas for how strategic areas of Seward may develop. Below are some photos of the Steering Committee Meeting on Thursday afternoon and from the Public Open House on Thursday evening

Kick-Off Meetings

City Council Kick-Off Meeting

On October 24th, the City Council completed a kick-off a visioning session with the project team to learn about the planning process including:

  • what is a comprehensive plan (and what it is not)
  • how it can be used
  • and what to expect over the next year

 

Steering Committee Kick-Off Meeting

A fundamental pillar of the planning process is a steering committee that is representative of the community. This group, appointed by the City Council, will meet monthly throughout the planning process, will provide direction to the plan, and will serve as ambassadors to the community. As their introduction to the comprehensive planning process, the group was led through a series of exercises to help them think about the role of a 20-year plan in helping the community navitage toward its best future.
