Impact analysis
Guides future growth of an estimated 139,000 new residents and 44,000 needed housing units by 2046.
All residents — the plan shapes future development, housing diversity, transportation, and conservation citywide.
Ultimately, if fees stay capped by the state, existing property owners could bear more of the growth-related infrastructure cost.

City Council — October 26, 2026
The Council formally adopted the city's long-range mobility plan and updated fee system, which sets how new growth pays for roads, sidewalks and transit over the next 25 years.
City Council (Work) — September 21, 2026
The plan lays out 25 years of road, sidewalk, bike and transit projects, funded by developer-paid mobility fees now rising to the state-capped 50% maximum, phased in over four years. The catch: the fee won't fully cover everything in the plan, so the council wants to lobby state legislators for more funding flexibility.
City Council — July 13, 2026
The city's blueprint for growth got its first approval — projecting over 400,000 residents by 2050, adding new industrial and activity-center land use categories, tightening voluntary annexation requirements, and shifting to a mobility-fee framework. Final adoption expected in October after state review.
Planning and Zoning Board — June 23, 2026
The city is rewriting its growth blueprint for the next 25 years, projecting 140,000 new residents. The plan shows we already have entitled land for 41,000 of the ~45,000 homes needed, so the focus shifts to smarter redevelopment rather than sprawl. Council makes the final call July 13 before it goes to the state.
City Council (Work) — June 15, 2026
The city's blueprint for growth projects 400,000+ residents by 2050 and lays out how land, housing, roads, parks, and utilities will handle it. Existing single-family neighborhoods keep their current densities; new Activity Center districts and expanded industrial categories target jobs and mixed-use redevelopment. The plan goes to a July 13 transmittal hearing before state review and an October adoption hearing.
