The Public Comment Period Closed April 04, 2025
We thank everyone who submitted feedback on the Draft Alabaster Comprehensive Plan! The Final Draft of the Comprehensive Plan includes necessary changes that were made based on the public comments received.
The Plan’s recommended actions for implementation are a direct result of the input given by the Alabaster community through a survey that was opened from February 13 to May 1, 2024, a series of stakeholder questionnaires, and two public meetings. The Draft Comprehensive Plan was presented to the public on March 4th, and the 30-day public comment period was open from March 5 through April 04, 2025.
The Comprehensive Plan guides day-to-day, short-term, and longer-term decision-making over the next 15 years. The Plan is intended to be a living document, meaning it will be updated and amended as needed to reflect progress made, changing conditions, and the evolving needs of the City. It is a visionary and policy document, not a legally binding code or ordinance.
