About our effort
The Flourishing Ferdinand Comprehensive Plan is a guidance document for future growth and development that focuses on the next 10 to 20 years. It serves as a roadmap for effective decision-making in private development projects and community initiatives for the public good. Through this process, we intend to help ensure that Ferdinand remains an active, comfortable, and safe community for residents and visitors for years to come.

Public Workshop #1 held on November 6, 2024
A public workshop was facilitated at the Ferdinand Community Center where attendees were provided a background of the comprehensive planning process and existing conditions summary. In addition, participants had an opportunity to provide feedback on potential plan focus areas related to land use and development, transportation, housing, quality of life and community character elements. This feedback will be utilized as part of the foundation for plan priorities that will be developed in the second phase of work. Attendees were also encouraged to complete the online survey and share that survey information with others in the coming weeks.
