Fast Growth in Metropolitan Phoenix is the first product of a comprehensive effort to describe and analyze the region’s growth. The Brookings Institution Center on Urban and Metropolitan Policy in Washington, D.C. presented the opportunity for this project to Morrison Institute for Public Policy. The story of growth in metropolitan Phoenix is a complicated, often surprising, tale. There is much to be proud of in the region. Yet there is also much to worry about, and much that needs to be done. Hits and Misses will have been successful if it becomes a catalyst for getting started.
A ten-year, financially balanced plan for addressing Peoria's present and future infrastructure needs; updated each year. The first year of the program is appropriated by the City Council as a capital budget, while the other nine years of the program are used for planning purposes.
The general plan provides a framework for the future development of Peoria, as defined and driven by extensive community participation. The Plan is dynamic and intended to be periodically updated. The Plan is used by the City to evaluate land use changes, and to review building and development regulations. It also provides a basis for Peoria's Capital Improvement Plan.
