The city's 2040 Comprehensive Plan update impacts all the properties, neighborhoods, and businesses in the city. The Comprehensive Plan outlines New Hope's long-range strategies for addressing housing, businesses, transportation, and community parks and facilities within New Hope.
An open house was held on May 30, 2018 to give residents a chance to view the plan and discuss questions and concerns with staff regarding the plan or specific neighborhoods. A public hearing on the draft New Hope 2040 Comprehensive Plan was conducted by the New Hope Planning Commission on June 5.
