West Side Neighborhood Strategic Action Plan

February 6, 2026

The purpose of the West Side Neighborhood Plan is to provide an articulated, shared vision to guide decision making. This initiative was developed to provide a special set of circumstances that require a more detailed planning strategy for neighbors to resolve a broad range of issues.

Neighborhood planning is an extension of the City of Paris’ Comprehensive Plan, which identifies detailed goals and strategies for reaching the future land use and public infrastructure investments. Neighborhood planning for the West Side community is an essential phase towards meeting residents’ needs for a more habitable and sustainable community.
