Town of Huntsville Strategic Plan

Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Linkedin Email this link

The Town of Huntsville has exciting plans ahead as we begin to create a new multi-year Strategic Plan, and we want you to be a part of the process!

The new Strategic Plan will establish the community’s highest priorities and a collective vision for the future. It will help guide Council, staff, and the community through key decision-making processes and direct resources where they are needed most.

As part of this process, the Town is engaging with Council, Town staff, and community members. This is your chance to have your voice heard and to help shape the direction of Huntsville for years to come.

    First Round of Public Engagement Now Closed

    A big thank you to all the Huntsville residents who took the time to tell us what matters most to them. During this initial round of public engagement, we received feedback through 1,500 survey responses, three community pop-up events, and three virtual focus group sessions.

    Next Steps

    During the next phase, we will develop a Draft Strategic Plan. To help inform the plan, we will analyze the results from the community engagement to ensure the plan reflects and balances the priorities and values Huntsville residents provided in their feedback.

    Further Engagement Opportunities

    We're not done hearing from the public yet! We will be circling back with the community with the Draft Strategic Plan. You will have the opportunity to review this draft and provide feedback. To stay up to date, subscribe to the project to receive emails as the project progresses.

    Hey Huntsville! It was great meeting some of you at our community pop-up events over the August long weekend. In chatting with folks, we learned what matters most to them in terms of community issues. Check out the photo of the priorities board we had at our event. Each sticker represents a person choosing their top priority.

    So far, we're seeing three buckets emerge from the feedback:

    Town infrastructure including investing in and maintaining roads, bike lanes and trail systems, parking, Town facilities, etc.

    Community well-being including advocacy for local healthcare needs, accessibility to community programming services for all ages, creating more inclusive communities, etc.

    Balanced growth including housing affordability and attainability, preserving the Town's heritage and identity, balancing growth and protecting the natural environment, etc.

    Do these themes resonate with you? Have other thoughts? Be sure to have your voice heard by taking our Strategic Plan Survey by August 25, 2023!
