Albany 2030: Your City, Your Future is a process to create the City's first Comprehensive Plan. The Albany Comprehensive Plan will include the City's collective vision for the future, as well as maps, policies, and guidelines that describe how to achieve that vision...The City has many completed and ongoing planning initiatives, including neighborhood revitalization plans, redevelopment programs, economic development plans, housing initiatives and studies, and recreation and greenway plans. Many City residents have been extensively involved in these planning efforts. Part of the Albany 2030: Your City, Your Future process is to build on this momentum and create a cohesive vision for a sustainable future for the entire City.

Welcome to Albany 2030

Information about the City of Albany's first comprehensive planning project.
This site will be your source of information for the Albany Comprehensive Plan Update process. We are calling this update process “Albany 2030: Your City, Your Future” because the City of Albany is asking for your vision for your city in 2030, and for your ideas of how to achieve that vision. The Comprehensive Plan will be based upon citizen ideas and input and will connect the City’s existing plans and actions in various neighborhoods and districts into a plan for the City as a whole. This site is one way to get information and to participate in the Albany 2030: Your City, Your Future process. Explore the site to Learn, Share, and Participate!

The Albany 2030: Your City, Your Future Kickoff Community Forum will be held on January 28th, 29th, and 30th, 2010. These three identical events will run for approximately three hours each day (specific times tbd) and will provide participants the chance to discuss Albany's future with their fellow Albany residents and begin to come together around a vision for the City's future. This Forum will use state-of-the-art technology to help synthesize the results of conversations, and allow each person's voice to be equally heard.
Although you can also provide thoughts and ideas online prior to the Forum, please plan on attending one of the Forum sessions and providing your input!
