Updates to Land Use Plan

Since late 2005, many activities have occurred as part of the process of updating the 1992 Greenfield Comprehensive Land Use Plan.
Those include:

• 4 “Neighborhood Visioning Sessions” to develop a greater knowledge/understanding of various neighborhood areas in order to learn about the respective issues/visions/opportunities
• A survey was distributed to approximately 3,000 randomly-selected property owners
• Monthly meetings of the Land Use Steering Committee, to review and discuss a wide-range of plan components

After the Land Use Committee finished their work as part of the overall process of updating of the Land Use Plan in April 2007, that review/recommendation was forwarded to the Plan Commission. In June 2008, the Plan Commission finished their component of the updating process and has forwarded a favorable recommendation to the Common Council.

2008 Public Hearing

As part of its review process, the Council hosted a public hearing on the proposed Land Use Plan/Maps at its September 16, 2008 regular meeting. After allowing for its own review time following the public hearing, on November 18, 2008, the Council approved Ordinance #2629, which adopted the Comprehensive Land Use Plan.
