Project Purpose
The City of Lockhart has engaged a consulting firm to prepare a Comprehensive Plan for the City. This includes the creation of a community vision, a series of recommendations, and implementation strategies related to how the City grows in a way that supports community needs.
A Comprehensive Plan is a guidance document that looks far into the future to establish a vision for the community and makes recommendations that provide direction and a blueprint to achieve that vision.
A Comprehensive Plan is:
- A reflection of the community's vision
- A long term statement that guides policy
- A basis for subsequent ordinances
- A tool for decision making
- A living document that should be updated regularly
A Comprehensive Plan is not:
- Legally binding
- Zoning ordinances
- Meant to sit on a shelf
