KEARNEY
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN UPDATE
Kearney, KS
|
|
Landplan Engineering
teamed with Phillips and Associates in 2003 to update the City of
Kearney’s 1994 Comprehensive Plan. The purpose of the update for the
City of Kearney is to provide a guide for future land development as the
City continues to grow. The following issues were studied and are part
of the Comprehensive Plan Update: Population Trends, Housing Trends,
Natural Environment, Existing Land Use, Transportation, Infrastructure,
and Community Services and Facilities.
During the planning process, the planning team conducted numerous
workshops with City staff, business and community leaders, and City
officials to gather input on these issues. The Future Land Use Plan
centers on:
- Public input.
- Transportation.
- Existing land use
patterns.
- Environmental
constraints (floodplain, stream corridors and existing vegetation).
- Incorporation of New
Urbanism principles.
- Providing business
opportunities along the I-35 corridor.
- Downtown overlay
districts.
The comprehensive plan
update was adopted in June 2004.
