What is a Comprehensive Plan?

The City of Lee's Summit actively engaged the community in the review and update of the City's comprehensive plan. The comprehensive plan articulates a series of goals, policies, actions and standards to guide the community’s physical development and programs over a 15 to 20-year timeframe. It serves as the basis for economic development, quality residential growth and general improvements for the protection of the quality of life for Lee's Summit residents and businesses. Community participation was critical in forming the plan to ensure it fulfills our shared vision of a vibrant community ensuring the finest quality of life for all generations. There were numerous opportunities for involvement via focus groups, community discussions and surveys.
