Erie’s current Comprehensive Plan was adopted in 2005 and updated in 2015. The Transportation Plan was last updated in 2018. Since the last updates, the Town has continued to change, not only as the result of growth and development, but also due to changing priorities and evolving values of the community. To ensure our plan represents an accurate, comprehensive, and inclusive vision for the Town’s future, Elevate Erie will focus on key topics such as:

  • Mobility and enhanced transportation options
  • Sustainability and resilience
  • Affordable housing
  • Diversity, equity, and inclusion
  • Other topics identified by the community

  • New Comp Plan & TMP draft vision and core values

    During the first phase of the project (December 2022 to May of 2023), community members and representatives were asked to share their perspectives on the Town of Erie. This initial phase of community engagement reflects the long-term community’s needs, values, and strengths, and is summarized here. 

    Through this extensive engagement, the project team was able to develop draft visions and core values for the new Town of Erie Comprehensive Plan and Transportation Mobility Plan (TMP).

    En la ciudad de Erie, los residentes, trabajadores y visitantes tienen a disposición una variedad de medios de transporte para trasladarse de manera segura, eficiente y conveniente. Todas las infraestructuras y políticas de transporte son innovadoras, accesibles y permiten el acceso igualitario de todos los usuarios. Caminar, andar en bicicleta y circular sobre ruedas es cómodo para personas de todas las edades y capacidades, mediante una red de instalaciones y cruces dentro y fuera de la calle que las conectan con destinos claves. El tránsito es seguro y práctico, con conexiones sólidas para la primera y la última milla. Conducir es eficiente, siempre y cuando haya un equilibrio con otros medios.
