Planning Department FY26 Budget Allocation for LDC and Master Plan Work
The FY25-26 adopted budget allocates 5% of the General Fund to the Planning Department, with an explicit expectation of Land Development Code updates and site-specific master plan initiatives during the fiscal year. |
ldc udo | budget line | Scope is implied (LDC updates and site-specific master plans) but no specific project or dollar figure is named. No timeline window for a specific RFP. No incumbent. The budget message signals planning department activity but lacks the specificity needed to pursue. Worth monitoring alongside the active Waterfront RFP. | 2026-04-29 | ||
