The City of West Melbourne is updating its Comprehensive Plan, “Horizon 2030”, along with a community-based visioning process to meet the State of Florida requirements. The Comprehensive Plan, last updated in 2009, is now returning to the planning process preparing for the city’s future, focusing on land use, transportation, recreation, sustainability and for infrastructure needs.

The Comprehensive Plan lays the foundation and groundwork in planning for our community’s future growth. It is a policy document which sets the decisions made by elected officials in terms of long-range land use and development regulations. Florida State Statutes Section 163.3177 requires that each local government have a Comprehensive Plan to guide and ensure consistent decision making on future growth.

The 2040 Comprehensive Plan update for the city must be carefully considered to address significant growth since 2010. Taking this understanding along with the city’s vision, the Commission authorized the City Manager to enter into an agreement with The Corradino Group to conduct the Comprehensive Plan revision in partnership with the community.

Throughout this process, there will be outreach to gauge community wants, concerns, and needs. This will be accomplished through a series of public workshops that will include interactive boards, presentations, and surveys where participants will be asked to share additional ideas and desires for the community, and we invite you to leave comments here.

The Comprehensive Plan will focus in on land use, transportation, public facilities, and other critical elements. Through this process, we will develop and adopt a new Comprehensive Plan that meets or exceeds the State of Florida requirements, embraces community needs and issues and contains common standards for local comprehensive planning. Corradino has provided the city a project schedule that delivers a draft plan to the City by April 2023.
