Dallas Land Use Plan Draft on Deck for Special City Plan Commission Hearing

The Dallas City Plan Commission will hold a special public hearing on the Forward Dallas comprehensive land use plan draft the evening of May 9. This is just one of many steps as the city’s long discussed guiding vision for land use and development moves through the review process.

The Forward Dallas plan makes use of “placetype” categories that are proposed for updates to respond to land use concerns such as land use compatibilities, housing access, challenged single-use commercial corridors, and community concerns related to development patterns.

The most recent draft can be found here:

The document is not Dallas’ actual development code but does give an idea of how the city views addressing those ordinances, and needed housing, in future.
