Policy Planning <br /> gay <br /> f ' ".+^d11W., r r <br /> k '., <br /> POLICY PLANNING <br /> We work with communities to create a vision for the future. <br /> The planners at M-Group have real world experience crafting and implementing <br /> General Plans, Zoning Codes, Design Guidelines,Area Plans and Precise Plans that <br /> help communities achieve their goals. <br /> General Plan Updates are a major opportunity for a City and its community to shape <br /> policy direction in a way that is visionary and implementable.Our approach is one <br /> of listening, educating, and translating the hopes and dreams of the community <br /> into cohesive policy direction. <br /> In the most recent Housing Element cycle, M-Group worked throughout the Bay <br /> Area,engaged in ten Housing Elements.This planning effort encompassed nearly <br /> 15,000 housing units. <br /> We emphasize local knowledge and technical expertise in undertaking successful <br /> comprehensive zoning ordinance updates. A zoning ordinance must reflect <br /> community vision-the unique goals,values and special conditions of each City and <br /> implement the General Plan. <br /> We strive to be forward thinking, utilize what works,and create sustainable cities. <br /> At the end of the process we want a "living document"that citizens can identify <br /> with and understand, and which proves useful in the day-to-day operations of <br /> the City.We work with staff, decision makers, and the community to engage in a <br /> collaborative planning effort throughout the policy planning process. <br /> Metropolitan Planning Group <br />
