Jenks Comprehensive Plan
Needing a new plan to guide the community through the evolution from a small suburban community to a fully built-out and vibrant city, the city of Jenks engaged Houseal Lavigne to prepare a new comprehensive plan to manage and guide the rapid growth while preserving and enhancing the community’s beloved small town charm and sense of place. Building upon a robust community outreach campaign, the new plan focuses on guiding growth in targeted areas, prioritizing investment in the Riverfront and Downtown, improving connectivity and pedestrian mobility within and between key areas, and strategically enhancing park and open space amenities to bolster quality of life for residents. The Horizon Jenks Comprehensive Plan is currently being followed up by the development of a new Unified Development Code by Houseal Lavigne, to ensure plan recommendations are supported by the regulations needed to help realize the community’s vision.
