An In-Depth Look At The Comprehensive Plan

For the last 19 months, the City of Northfield has been drafting its Comprehensive Plan, the 20-year plan for the city. It informs the decisions on many issues, including growth, redevelopment, infrastructure plans, and so much more. The plan is set to be approved by the City Council in mid-March. 

In order to help break down the Comp Plan, KYMN's Logan Wells talked with Northfield Planning Commission Chair Betsey Buckheit and Community Development Director Jake Reiley. They start on page 1 of the plan and walk their way through the plan, kind of like an audiobook of the comp plan.
