Neighborhood Planning Process
The neighborhood planning process is the cycle we follow to create a new neighborhood action plan. The basic phases of the neighborhood planning process are as follows:
1. Phase one is the research/analysis phase. During this time, planning staff gather and analyze data about the neighborhood, survey the residents, and initiates meetings with residents and other neighborhood stakeholders, which leads to the planning phase.

2. Phase two is the planning phase. During this phase, through a visioning process, residents develop a set of goals for the neighborhood. This phase focuses on cooperative problem solving to develop strategies for achieving these goals and arriving at solutions to the issues identified in Phase 1.
3. Phase three is the adoption phase . In this phase, the plan has been agreed upon by all involved parties and then approved by City Council. If approved, the plan is now prepared for implementation.
4. Phase four, the implementation phase, is the final phase of the Neighborhood Planning Process. In this phase, the neighborhood plan is implemented by a collaborative group of organizations and individuals to enhance the neighborhoods quality of life.
The evaluation phase is an ongoing part of the planning process, which consists of continuous monitoring and oversight of the programs past and present. One of the NPP’s primary goals is to make sure that the neighborhood continues to progress. To do so, we are working to focus more on the evaluation of the neighborhood plans by conducting more monitoring and oversight. <back to top>
