Tyler Tomorrow

What is a Comprehensive Plan and Why Does It Matter?


The City of Tyler is starting a new Comprehensive Plan—a strategic roadmap for the City’s growth over the next 20 years. This plan will update the Tyler 1st Comprehensive Plan from 2007 and related area plans. A comprehensive plan outlines community goals for land use, housing, economic development, transportation, infrastructure and more. It helps City leaders make informed decisions that align with the community’s values. Why do we do it? Planning today prepares us for tomorrow by ensuring quality development and maintaining vital infrastructure. Our goal is to create a shared vision for Tyler that supports smart growth and embraces new opportunities.

As the planning process progresses, we will offer meetings and surveys for residents to share their input.

Stay tuned for updates and ways to get involved!
