WHAT IS A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN?
A comprehensive plan can be defined as an officially adopted, long-range plan used to guide or direct the growth and physical development of a community for an extended period of time. It can be considered a road map leading public decisions to the achievement of community goals. The Plan will guide policies relevant to diverse elements including but not limited to land use, transportation, public facilities & services, economic development, environment & natural resources and housing. The plan's directive is sustained by goals and objectives extracted from present conditions, the needs of the citizens, existing policy plans and future forecasts. A comprehensive plan should further represent a community's vision addressing desirable future development of a community. This vision is best constructed through a government and community consensus and it is required to be all encompassing in scope, general in nature and long-range in perspective. In the case of Port Isabel an extensive visioning process was just completed in 2005, this should serve as the basis for the comprehensive plan. Furthermore, in order to remain effective, a comprehensive plan will require periodic updating and revisions.
