| City of
Houghton Master Plan |
 |
|
The City of
Houghton Planning Commission is working on a
new Master Plan which will replace the last
Master Plan done in 1972.
The
Commission expects to complete a draft of
the Plan by June of 2012.
One of the first
steps to creating a Master Plan is to create
an Executive Summary which provides the
basis for planning in the City of Houghton
as well as a summary of our existing
conditions.

-
A very
important step in the planning process
is public input.
The
Planning Commission plans to solicit
public comments in two ways:
-
A survey that
will be randomly distributed to
residents throughout the City in an
effort to receive comment from residents
in every section of the City including
students.

Houghton residents
gave their suggestions to update the master
plan at informal neighborhood meetings held
in March. Topics of discussion included
walking and biking routes, public green
space areas, and neighborhood improvements.
The Planning Commission will take
information gathered from the survey and
these meetings to create the first draft of
the master plan. There will then be another
public meeting held to review the draft and
make further comments.
