COMPREHENSIVE PLAN UPDATE
In December 2007, Monroe City Council authorized the beginning of a comprehensive planning update process. The City uses comprehensive planning to identify development issues and to design detailed solutions which guide desired City policy and outline goals and action steps. The process will be guided by a Steering Committee of representatives from Monroe government, business, institutions, non-profits, and real estate development sectors. Planning consultants from Poggemeyer Design Group, Inc. (PDG) will be assisting the Steering Committee with the preparation of the comprehensive planning update.

Members of the City of Monroe Planning Steering Committee include:
• Kevin Chesar, City of Monroe Director of Development
• Stan Kappers, institutional representative/Mt. Pleasant
• Bob Kelley, Planning Commission
• Jack Levermann, commercial developer
• Elizabeth Lolli, Monroe Schools representative
• John MacDonald, business owner
• Mike Morris, Planning Commission
• Dan Paynter, resident/HOA representative
• Suzi Rubin, City Council
• Tracy Shell, City Council
• Larissa Sims, OKI Regional Council of Governments
• Robert Snook, Lemon Township Trustee
• Casey Sparks, City of Monroe Planning and Zoning Specialist
• Harry Thomas, residential developer
