Plan CC is the city comprehensive plan and is implemented through Area Development Plans for districts like Downtown, South Side, and Mustang-Padre Island, each setting land use, density, and street-design guidance for that geography.
Plan CC, adopted by city council, sets citywide goals for growth management, mobility, housing, and resilience. Implementation occurs through Area Development Plans tailored to neighborhoods such as Downtown, the South Side growth corridor, Westside, and Mustang-Padre Island. Each ADP includes future land use maps, zoning recommendations, and capital project priorities. Applicants for zoning changes and major plats must demonstrate consistency with the applicable ADP, and the Planning Commission relies on these documents during review. Updates to ADPs occur on rolling cycles and involve neighborhood meetings, especially for the coastal islands.
No direct penalties attach to non-conformance with an ADP. However, zoning changes and plat approvals inconsistent with the plan are routinely denied or sent back for revision by the Planning Commission and city council.
