SECOND PLANNING COMMISSION PUBLIC HEARING RESCHEDULED FOR PLAN TUCSON 2025 REVISED DRAFT - The Planning Commission rescheduled its second Plan Tucson 2025 Revised Draft public hearing to Wednesday, April 9, at 6 p.m., due to a lack of quorum at the Wednesday, March 19, meeting. Plan Tucson 2025 is the City of Tucson’s general plan and outlines the City’s strategic vision for growth, sustainability, and community development over the next decade. Public input is a crucial part of the process as the revised draft plan moves through review and adoption. Following the Planning Commission’s review, Mayor and Council will hold a study session in late April, followed by a public hearing in May. If approved, Tucson residents will have the opportunity to vote on Plan Tucson in the November election.
