Comprehensive Land-Use Plan Meeting Set

The Goodman Comprehensive Land Use Plan meeting will be at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 22, at Goodman City Hall.

The meeting was originally scheduled for July, but officials wanted to allow residents more time to complete a survey. Survey input will help guide officials moving forward with the plan.

The Comprehensive Land Use Plan for the city, to be developed by the Harry S. Truman Coordinating Council, will help Goodman set planning and zoning regulations, dream for the future and plan long-term, said HSTCC Executive Director Jill Cornett.

The HSTCC was tapped by the Department of Defense to work on a land-use plan to protect the mission of Camp Crowder near Neosho, Cornett said. From that work, other joint land-use plans are being developed. Neosho is updating its land-use plan, and Goodman is developing its first, she said.

Officials are seeking residents' input for the plan. The meeting is open to the public.
