Project Description > Greenways Incorporated, as a member of the HNTB Team, is working with the City of Raleigh and its residents to prepare an update of the Comprehensive Plan. This is the fourth comprehensive plan in the history of the city, with the last being completed in 1989. Greenways Incorporated's role in the planning effort is to examine and help formulate recommendations for sustainability, open space, parks and greenways. To accomplish this, the consultant team and the client envision a "Greenprint Raleigh" strategy that encompasses a broad range of 21st century issues, including resource conservation, stewardship, energy efficiency, recycling and reuse, and reducing environmental impact.
The planning process was begun in August 2007 and is expected to be completed in the Spring 2009. The planning process includes extensive citizen involvement, wholesale changes to the current comprehensive plan and the use of interactive technology to make the plan understandable by residents. Greenways Incorporated is meeting with local groups to define appropriate goals and objectives to meet the Greenprint Raleigh vision.
