Major General Plan Amendment Cases, Process, & Timeline
State Statute requires that all major General Plan amendments be presented at one City Council hearing per calendar year – the same calendar year in which they are initiated. There are two major General Plan amendment requests this year. The first, Desert Mountain Parcel 19 (5-GP-2016), has been initiated by a private applicant. The second major, City of Scottsdale General Plan 2035 (Case 6-GP-2016), has been initiated by the City of Scottsdale.

Scottsdale General Plan 2035 (Case 6-GP-2016)
Public meetings begin in August on Scottsdale General Plan 2035. State law requires the city update its General Plan every 10 years. The General Plan is the primary tool for guiding future development and the character of the city over the next 20 years.
A citizen Task Force completed the draft General Plan 2035 in November 2014. The city is launching a six-month process that may lead to its adoption. Public meetings include a City Council study session on August 30 to discuss community-suggested changes to the draft plan.
Additionally, three open houses are planned in September for further community review and input on the draft plan. The Planning Commission will hold public hearings in October and a City Council hearing regarding adoption of the plan could take place in December.
If adopted by the City Council, General Plan 2035 would be sent to the voters for ratification in 2017 or 2018 per Council direction.
The public can review the draft Plan and submit feedback at General Plan 2035. Learn more information about the plan and upcoming public meetings on the Case Info Sheet. For more information, contact Project Coordination Liaison Sara Javoronok, at 480-312-7918, or sjavoronok@scottsdaleaz.gov.
