Comprehensive Plan & Land Use Map
In Mustang the vision for future growth and development is outlined in a Comprehensive Plan. Comprehensive Plans are the backbone of any community planning effort. They outline challenges facing the community, identify solutions, and provide guidance to appointed and elected officials on planning-related decisions. The best Comprehensive Plans are those that have the support of the broader community. They are a living document that grows and changes with the community.
A comprehensive plan provides a vision for the future of the community along with the steps that are needed to make that vision a reality. It is the basis for land use regulations and provides a nexus between the community’s future vision and the regulation of private property. This framework helps guide growth and change but without it, the development process would be reactive, resulting in development that is uncoordinated and costly.
Community planning, according to the American Planning Association, is “a process that seeks to engage all members of the community to create a more prosperous, convenient, equitable, healthy, and attractive place for present and future generations.” One of the fundamental responsibilities of local government is to plan for future growth and development of the community. The guidance document that results from this planning process is the comprehensive plan.
Mustang is one of the fastest growing cities in Oklahoma and it lies in the state's fastest growing county. It is important we make the best use of all of the land in our 12-square mile City Limits by carefully considering each development proposal on its own merits and how it could impact existing and future residents.
