New comprehensive plan website launches
Philadelphia planners have launched a new website with information on the new city-wide comprehensive plan and the the in-the-works, more detailed district plans.
At the website, http://phila2035.org/, readers can see the city-wide plan, submit feedback to the City of Philadelphia Planning Commission, and learn about an upcoming open house at which the public can talk to planners directly.
Information on how to participate in the district-level planning process for Phialdelphia2035 is also posted, as is information about the Healthy Communities initiative and zoning code reform.
WHYY is your source for fact-based, in-depth journalism and information. As a nonprofit organization, we rely on financial support from readers like you. Please give today.
