IV. PRELIMINARY REVIEW OF UPDATED COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
Over the past 45 days, the Planning staff has undertaken a review and update of the
Village's Comprehensive Plan. Interim updates are undertaken approximately every
two years. The last update of the Comprehensive Plan took place in 1992.
The review process has involved almost all operating Department
Departments/Divisions as well as soliciting input from other governmental entities which
serve the citizens of Mount Prospect. The Plan Commission also played an integral
role in the review process through their review, commentary and suggested changes.
The recent discussion regarding the extension of Meier Road and its relationship to the
Comprehensive Plan highlight the importance of this document as a community
planning tool. A portion of the information package contains an article that explains the
purpose of a Comprehensive Plan and its role in the development of a community. The
Comprehensive Plan serves as a long-range planning policy guide that provides current
and future Village Boards, staff, residents and developers with direction on how Mount
Prospect should be developed.
Statutory dictates require that a Public Hearing be held prior to the final adoption of the
Comprehensive Plan. Due to the size and complexity of the document, a preliminary
review by the Village Board would be helpful in preparing for said Public Hearing.
Based on this preliminary discussion, staff can make adjustments to the Plan as well as
determine the best way to solicit community-wide comment.
Appropriate staff will be in attendance Tuesday evening to answer questions and
facilitate discussion. Members of the Plan Commission have also been invited to
attend and participate in the review.
