FLAGSTAFF — The City of Flagstaff and Coconino County invite the community to attend the Citizen Review Session for the Flagstaff Regional Land Use Plan 2045, which will be held on Friday, May 2 at City Hall from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. The session was originally to be held at the Aquaplex, but the location has changed to City Hall. The meeting can also be attended virtually, and the link will be available in the agenda.

The session is a Joint City-County Retreat, where elected officials will discuss important updates to the draft Regional Plan, which was revised following the 60-day public review process. Flagstaff City Council, the Coconino County Board of Supervisors, and the City and County Planning and Zoning Commissions will participate in the review and there will be an opportunity for public participation. The meeting agenda and packet will be available on Monday, April 28 at flagstaff.az.gov/RegionalPlan2045.

The Flagstaff Regional Land Use Plan 2045 sets high-level guidance for policy decisions over the next decade in the City of Flagstaff and surrounding areas of Coconino County. The plan covers a wide range of topics and is especially relevant for future land-use and development decisions. The May 2 discussion will focus on the Regional Plan’s priorities, goals, the Future Growth Illustration and land use categories, trail planning, and creating a sense of place.
