The City of Plymouth recently updated their Master Plan in order to provide long-term guidance for the City’s growth and development. While much of the City is already developed, redevelopment and the maintenance of a quality urban environment is a priority.

The Master Plan focused upon four City subareas which included a detailed examination of land use policies. For each subarea, form-based policies were established which addressed issues of land use mix, setbacks, streetscape, parking, and general urban design. Circulation policies were also established for auto and pedestrian arrangements within a complete streets context.The Plymouth Master Plan also includes an implementation section regarding capital improvements, future zoning adjustments, and corridor planning. An environmental and sustainable development section addresses Low-Impact Development (LID) strategies for future development.

The entire master planning process successfully engaged elected officials, planning commissioners, and subcommittee members, and created a document which will provide long-term guidance for the City of Plymouth.
