Council tables Plain City 2026 Comprehensive Plan after members request revisions
Summary
Council delayed adoption of the 2026 Comprehensive Plan (Resolution 26-2026) after multiple members raised concerns about recommended density increases, mixed-use in Uptown, and potential impacts on schools and parking; staff will revise the draft.
Council discussed the final draft of the 2026 Comprehensive Plan presented by MKSK Studios and heard a range of concerns from council members about the document's recommendations. MKSK representative Kyle May provided an overview of the plan's formation process, stakeholders involved and a tentative adoption timeline.
Council members expressed multiple objections. Ms. Toni Arnold said she had several concerns with the plan's recommendations and "would not vote in favor of its adoption" in its current form; she and others worried about increased density, mixed-use in Uptown, and effects on parking and schools. Mayor Jody Carney echoed concerns about introducing a bus route through the Uptown area. Mr. May and Administrator Lupton confirmed staff can revise the draft in response to Council comments.
The council subsequently voted to table the second reading of Resolution 26-2026 so staff can prepare revisions for further review; the motion passed with all members recorded as in favor. No final adoption occurred at the meeting.
