Background and Analysis:
Olympia has a new Comprehensive Plan with a clear vision for our community's future. The Action Plan will lay out specifically what we, as a community, will do over the next six years to accomplish our newly adopted goals. That may include everything from individual projects, like completion of the Percival Landing rehabilitation, to on-going programs, such as the expansion of a citywide bike corridor network. The Plan will also include community indicators to help us track our progress and share stories of success.
A draft Action Plan has been developed over the past year by City staff with guidance from LUEC, and an extensive public involvement process is currently underway until late July. A draft Action Plan is slated to be delivered to City Council for consideration in August 2015.
