Plainview Bond 2017

City of Plainview Bond 2017 Citizen Engagement Page

This process started with the adoption of the Comprehensive Plan for the City in 2013. The Comprehensive Plan served as the framework for guiding the future development, redevelopment and community enhancements over the 20 years and beyond.

In July 2016, the City held a Community Strategy Meeting to discuss these major capital improvement projects identified in the plan as well as provide an update on the progress made with the implementation of the Comprehensive Plan. This meeting led to the City Council appointing a Citizen Advisory Committee to serve as a steering committee for prioritizing the major capital improvement projects proposed over the next 5 year time period. The Citizen Advisory Committee considered projects ranging from qualify of life improvements with our parks system to the public facilities such as the Police Department as well as mobility improvements with streets and sidewalks.

In November 2017, the City held a bond election in which the citizens voted for passage of all six bond propositions.
