The plan will be used by area leaders to make decisions and policies that will shape the community for years to come.

The draft was guided by feedback obtained from community outreach, analysis of existing conditions, and community visioning to ensure the comprehensive plan is reflective of the communities it will serve. Houseal Lavigne Associates and the All In Allen team are excited to present their vision of how to navigate the challenges—and opportunities—facing our community.
