Guiding Principles

The Guiding Principles are a major outcome of public engagement efforts. They represent the most prominent themes voiced by community members in 2015 and provide a community and value-based framework for the Vision. These six principles capture our values and aspirations as a community and underlie the goals, policies, and actions in each element of the Comp Plan. The Table of Contents for each chapter includes a bookmark for the Guiding Principles.
