Staff Report
DRIPPING SPRINGS – As what used to be a small town has been seeing rapid growth, the city of Dripping Springs is in the process of updating its Comprehensive Plan.
Earlier this month, the planning team for the city’s Comprehensive Plan met for a two-day period with members of the Comprehensive Plan Advisory Committee and local stakeholders to learn more about what the community needs and discover a vision for the future of Dripping Springs.
There were three interactive meetings with stakeholders and CPAC, and each one allowed the consultant team to connect face-to-face with a variety of people representing a diversity of interests. DTJ Design, the firm hired to oversee the initiative, gained valuable information and a better understanding of what is important to the community.
The feedback, along with the results of the community survey that was launched during the Founders Day Festival, will help form an upcoming community survey and pinpoint areas of focus in the team’s evaluation of existing conditions and needs.
The first survey received more than 400 responses. A second, more comprehensive, survey-- will be launched in August and a public meeting is scheduled for September.
