Mapping out Seguin’s future Seguin City Council members move towards adoption of city’s new comprehensive plan
The city used a Community Open House format to get more input on its proposed Comprehensive Plan. Darren Dunn
(Seguin) -- The Seguin City Council has given a thumbs up to a new plan that maps out the city’s future for the next 20 to 30 years. The city has been working on a new comprehensive plan. The plan spells out the vision for the city’s future, establishes guiding principles that will help it to get there, and then looks at several other necessary steps to make sure that the city has the tools, the policies and the practices in place to achieve those goals.
The city hired the San Marcos-based firm Freese and Nichols to help develop the updated comprehensive plan. Project Manager Chance Sparks, an urban planner at Freese and Nichols, says this process has taken more than a year to complete, and it included a number of interactions with the community. Sparks says this includes a recent meeting that it held to allow the community to preview a draft copy of the proposed plan.

“We’re seeing a lot of great feedback. Lots of comments about focusing on growth and change in different areas of the city. We’ve heard a lot of positive language. It’s very action oriented, with lots of action words within goal statements, objectives, and things like that. A lot of input on what you heard (City Manager Steve) Parker referred to earlier, with an emphasis on quality-oflife issues. Future, pg. 2
