How to guide Marysville’s development for the next 25 years is on Tuesday’s City Council agenda. It’s a new General Plan. The existing plan is 40 years old… and a lot’s happened since 1985.
Illustrated with maps, graphics and pictures, the City of Marysville General Plan 2050 is the result of a three-year project. It includes “Land Use and Community Development, Transportation/Circulation, Open Space, Conservation and Recreation, Environmental Justice, and Noise,” according to city documents.
“The Land Use Element includes new Downtown mixed-use districts to allow for more flexibility in the future to encourage development of the city and are consistent with the new districts identified in the Downtown Specific Plan,” the staff report advises.
Required by state law, “The General Plan communicates the vision and long-term strategy for how the City of Marysville community will evolve through 2050.
The General Plan provides the basis for Marysville’s regulation of the overall amount, character, and location of urban development, as well as economic development, historic preservation and natural resource conservation, transportation, public safety, public facilities and services, infrastructure, and housing.”
The components guide “decisions on entitlements, annexations, zoning, subdivision and design review, entitlements, capital improvements, and other actions.”
Public comments can be made during the Council’s discussion.
