Comp Plan: In January 2016, the ABC-Z Project Team released for public review an update of the existing Comprehensive Plan for both the City of Albuquerque and Bernalillo County. Comments were due by March 11, 2016. What is this Plan and what happens now? This comprehensive plan or “Comp Plan” is a policy document that is jointly adopted by the City of Albuquerque and Bernalillo County. It describes the community’s vision for the future of the built and natural environment and provides goals, policies, and implementing actions to achieve that vision. In this way, the Comp Plan shapes the future of Albuquerque and the unincorporated areas of Bernalillo County by guiding decisions about growth, development, and public investments related to land use, transportation, urban design, parks and open space, housing, economic development, neighborhoods, infrastructure, community facilities, and human services. There are hundreds of plans for the City's development, such as the Metropolitan Redevelopment Area Plan (see above), and all such plans must fit within the vision of the Comp Plan. The Introduction to the Comp Plan (PDF file) is here. There is a chapter in the plan for each major emphasis, such as Neighborhoods, and Parks & Open Space. The Table of Contents with links to each chapter is here. The web site for the April 15-16 public discussion of revisions to the January draft and to help finalize the draft is here. The City of Albuquerque ABC-Z Project team will then finalize the draft to be submitted to the City's Environmental Planning Commission as the first step in the review and approval process. |
