Avon, IN

Comprehensive Plan

The Avon Comprehensive Plan is a strategic planning effort between Town leadership and staff, nonprofits, local businesses, emergency services, utility providers, and the broader community to guide future growth and development in the Town of Avon. The project is a response to present opportunities and changes that have occurred since the Town’s current Comprehensive Plan, Activate Avon, was adopted in 2017. Sustained residential, commercial, industrial growth and progress made towards implementing the Town’s current plan indicate that it is time to update this important document.

This plan will cover land use, transportation, economic development, government capacity, utilities, and other topics vital for sustainable growth throughout the Town. Existing conditions research and analysis will lay the foundation for a set of planning goals and action strategies that Town officials and other community leaders will use to inform decision making. However, the Avon Comprehensive Plan is not solely meant for elected officials and Town staff but should serve as a reference document for the entire community.

Over the course of the planning process, residents, business owners, employees, and visitors will be invited to participate in engagement opportunities to provide insight into their lived experience in Avon. This input not only assists local leaders in identifying priorities for the Comprehensive Plan, but also helps lay a foundation of community support, which is key to successful implementation. Online surveys, stakeholder meetings, public workshops, and pop-up events are all part of the plan’s engagement and outreach process.
