The Department has marketing material that is updated every year and is provided to prospective developers considering bringing a new business or constructing new housing in the City.

In order to guide the significant growth and changes that are occurring in the community, the Planning and Development Department has been proactive with respect to transportation planning, corridor development planning, land use planning and site planning.
