City launches comprehensive-plan update; consultant Mike Hoffman to lead kickoff
Summary
Planning staff told the board Kankakee City has engaged Tesca/Te(s)co Associates (lead: Mike Hoffman) to update the city's comprehensive plan for the first time since 1997, with a kickoff meeting expected in the coming weeks.
Planning staff announced the city has engaged a planning consultant to update the comprehensive plan, which staff said has not been updated since 1997. The kickoff meeting with the consultant team, led by Mike Hoffman (identified as the lead contact by staff), is expected in the coming weeks. "It's a huge undertaking. It takes a little over a year," staff said.
Staff told the board that the planning board will play a crucial role, as one of its charges under city code and state statute is to participate in plan updates; members were invited to prepare for engagement in outreach and review over the next 12–18 months.
