The City of Rockville last updated its comprehensive plan in 2004. Over the next year, the City will be going through a process to review and update its existing comprehensive plan and zoning codes. Public input will be used to draft an updated comprehensive plan and zoning code that reflects the current and future needs of the community.

What is Comprehensive Plan?
A Comprehensive Plan defines the vision, goals and aspirations for the future growth and development of the community. The plan is intended to identify and locate where land uses should be located. The plan considers population trends, transportation patterns, natural resources, economic development activity and correlating needs for utilities, housing, businesses, as well as parks and open space. It also guides decisions on both public and private investments in infrastructure and facilities. This plan helps the city to identify community priorities and goals while providing implementation strategies for achieving these goals.
