The city is inviting public comment on its plans for the future of development in Edmonton.

The final draft City Plan has been posted online for Edmontonians to read and comment on.

It outlines how Edmonton will change as it transitions from a city of 1-million people to 2 million.

The PDF upload of the plan itself allows readers to highlight specific sections and then write comments about what they’ve selected.

The plan — and the public engagement surrounding its development — has been in the works since 2018.

This is the second opportunity for comment: the first draft was posted in October, where city officials said they received 1,300 comments from Edmontonians.

Those comments were all considered and used to amend the current draft. The current feedback session, which launched Dec. 16, will be open until Jan. 16, 2020, and will be the final opportunity for online feedback in its development.

City officials say a public hearing will also be planned sometime in 2020 for in-person comments before the document becomes official.
