Lakewood is updating the City’s Comprehensive Plan and we want to hear from you!

The Comprehensive Plan is an important citywide tool that defines the vision, goals and priorities for Lakewood over next 10-15 years. The Plan will be used by staff, City Council, Planning Commission and other boards and commissions to inform decisions about land use, housing, transportation, climate action, parks, public health, equity and more in Lakewood.

Throughout 2024, we will be discussing what our vision and values are for Lakewood and what challenges we need to address moving forward so that we and future generations can continue to enjoy our community and thrive. Read more about the planning process.


December 2024 Update! The draft Vision, Goals, and Strategies for Lakewood's new Comprehensive Plan are available for review!

After nearly a year of community conversations about the vision and values for the future of Lakewood, the Envision Lakewood 2040 project team is excited to share the Draft Vision Elements for the updated Comprehensive Plan! These elements – including the Vision Statement, Guiding Principles, Goals, and Strategies – have been the focus of the Advisory Group meetings and will shape Lakewood's future for the next 15 years. Please take a few minutes to complete this short 7 question survey before January 10, 2025. Please encourage your friends, family, and neighbors who live, work or visit Lakewood to take the survey too
