The Plan will guide decision-making for the City for the next 10 years, and will serve as a basis for modifications to land use and planning regulations, public and private investment decisions, prioritization for the allocation of city resources, and incorporate smart growth principles to encourage the efficient use of resources.
The City anticipates the new Plan will express a progressive vision that promotes thoughtful, managed growth and development, promotes the health, safety and welfare of the community and continues to position Jasper as a regional hub of economic and social activity.
The ‘future orientation’ is particularly important to take account of rapidly emerging social and technological trends. The ‘data driven’ ensures the plan is built on solid research, public input and information, and is measurable. The ‘people focused’ is important to build support for the vision and goals for the City, and to harness the best possible input into the plan’s formulation.
