What is the process to prepare Edinas Comprehensive Plan Update?
A. This plan is an update of the 1999 plan update, and as such will not require a complete re-writing of the plan; however, some substantial changes are anticipated. The process established by the Edina City Council, includes regular work sessions by the Planning Commission Comp Plan Task Force, large-group public meetings, smaller community meetings in specific areas of the city (such as in the areas surrounding the elementary schools), listening sessions (small meetings held in response to invitations by community organizations or neighborhood groups), intergenerational dialogue with residents and other stakeholders, as well as ample opportunity for comment on the citys website and through other means. The City has hired planning consultant, Dan Cornejo, to lead and coordinate the Comp Plan update technical analysis process, and to work with City staff in organizing the public engagement process. He will be assisted by the firm of URS Corp., who will compile the chapters on land use
