Memphis 3.0 Update
Public Workshops
The Memphis 3.0 Comprehensive Plan is where community voices shape the city's future. Our comprehensive planning process is more than just a series of meetings and proposals; it's an opportunity for every Memphian to play a pivotal role in charting the course for our collective growth and prosperity. Participation isn't just encouraged—it's essential. Your input fuels the vision for a more vibrant, equitable, and resilient Memphis. By engaging in this process, you're not only shaping policies and projects; you're actively contributing to the fabric of our community, ensuring that every voice is heard and every perspective considered. Together, we're building a Memphis that reflects the aspirations and dreams of all its residents. Join us in shaping tomorrow, today.
Tell us about your neighborhood's priorities. What goals do you have? What has gotten better? What needs more attention?
(Ex: We want a neighborhood grocery store.)

Whitehaven Small Area Plan
During the Small Area Planning Process, community engagement was crucial to the ideation of design concepts and recommendations for neighborhood improvements and development. The Division of Planning and Development (DPD) partnered with Opticos Design to create a vision for each of the anchor-focused Small Area Plans. After several meetings with community members and other interested parties Opticos Design, DPD, and stakeholders compiled suggestions to create plans for anchor and neighborhood revitalization.
