1) Population Study; (20-year projections) utilizing current data while addressing potential and projected future issues with an emphasis on resiliency.

2) Housing Study; (10-year projections) refreshing any existing reports, and studies and review the city’s current situation with a future outlook for housing demand.

3) Land Use Study/Plan; analyzing current land use and studying the future projections to ensure the community is well positioned for future needs and prepared, and more resilient to both natural disasters and local hazard risks.

4) Zoning Ordinance; review existing zoning ordinances (where available) and recommend revisions and/or new ordinances to meet identified needs and risks.

5) Infrastructure Study / Capital Improvement Plan; including analyses of all community infrastructure assets and systems (e.g. transportation, drainage, water, sewer, and parks) and recommendations for capital projects to increase community resilience.

The Texas General Land Office created the Resilient Communities Program because they recognized that Texas communities need to prepare not just for today, but for tomorrow's challenges too.

For the community, this means planning that considers our unique character while strengthening the ability to bounce back from events like floods, economic shifts, or growth pressures.

Resiliency isn't an add-on to our comprehensive plan—it's woven into every aspect.

Your specialized knowledge is invaluable to us. We're counting on your expertise to ensure our plan effectively addresses both today's needs and tomorrow's challenges. We're asking you to review:

Resiliency Goals and Objectives
Hazards and Risks Assessment
Community Profile

As you review each section, please keep these important questions in mind:

Do our objectives address both immediate shocks and long-term stressors?
Have we adequately considered social equity and vulnerable populations?
Are there clear mechanisms for monitoring progress and adapting strategies as conditions change?
Do the objectives promote cross-sector coordination and systems thinking?

Your thoughtful feedback will help shape a plan that preserves what makes your community special while building resilience for generations to come.
