Comprehensive Plan

Since the late-1970s, the city has maintained a Comprehensive, or Master, Plan that directs, coordinates, and evaluates the city's development and progress and ensures continued orderly development of our community.

The four books and 13 maps of the Comprehensive Plan guide development toward established community goals.

Books

• Plan Implementation and Goals for Overland Park are documents that reflect the city's policies.
• Plan Elements and Planning Commission Research Topics provide the background information used to support the land use goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan.

Maps

• Community and Neighborhood Boundaries
• Community and Neighborhood Facilities
• Future Development Plan
• Future Parks Plan
• Greenway Linkages Plan for Northern Overland Park
• Greenway Linkages Plan for Southern Overland Park

• Bike Route Plan
• Vision Metcalf Five Subarea Land Use Plans 

The Future Development Plan is the graphic representation of the city's Comprehensive Plan.

The Comprehensive Plan is not an exact blueprint of the city's future, nor is it a static document. The plan is a policy guide that is reviewed annually and can change with development cycles, the changing economy and resident views.
