During the 2018 Community Planning process, the citizens of Bentonville collectively prioritized thoughtful growth as a pressing concern for our next ten to twenty years. In response, we launched a more in-depth community conversation around exactly what that looks like.
It's called Plan Bentonville and we've been asking a series of questions about how and where we want to grow. What character do we want to cultivate? How do we want our streets to feel and function? Where in the city should we encourage desired growth and where do we seek to preserve the qualities we love?
With that information, we’ll ultimately develop the tools we need to ensure that the development we want is the development we get. This includes an updated Future Land Use Map and a development and zoning code update. All the details are online at planbentonville.com.
