FLAGSTAFF — The City of Flagstaff Planning and Zoning Commission will hold two public hearings to review a major amendment to the Flagstaff Regional Plan 2030. The proposed amendment will update the Plan’s climate action goals and policies to align with the Flagstaff Carbon Neutrality Plan.
The proposed amendment is within the Climate Change and Adaptation section of the Environmental Planning & Conservation Chapter, located on pages IV-11 and IV-12. This change will ensure congruence between the City’s climate goals and the Regional Plan 2030, reducing confusion, increasing transparency, and supporting decision-makers. These hearings follow a 60-day public review period which included public events and a community survey.
The public hearings will take place on November 10th and November 17th:
| Planning and Zoning Commission – Hearing Two
November 17th 4:30 pm. Online meeting via Microsoft Teams |
The Flagstaff City Council will discuss this amendment at their November 16 City Council meeting as part of an informational update. On December 7, City Council will hold a public hearing for potential adoption.
The public is invited to learn more about this amendment, attend the hearings, either in-person or virtually, and provide comments. Information on the Amendment and the public hearings is available on the Amendment web page at https://www.flagstaff.az.gov/4672/Regional-Plan-Amendment-for-Carbon-Neutr.
