You may rank more than five growth principles, but only your top five will be recorded. You may also write your own growth principles in the next question.
The order of growth principles has been randomized.
(Click on an item to rank it and to see additional information/ definitions) Increase resiliency of new development and developed areas to the impacts of climate change, fires, and floods, Mitigate traffic congestion, Maximize access and availability to active transportation and transit , Minimize water use and plan for water conservation, Preserve natural areas with high ecological values
Is there anything else you would like to share with the project team regarding the scenario planning process and the development of growth scenarios? Flagstaff needs to stop growing. Our footprint is substantial, but alot of the areas impacted by past development have been left under utilized, specifically the Route 66 areas. The addition of high density mixed use housing does not seem to be adding much value to the community or addressing rents.
I would love to see a sustainability study that shows population targets and how consequences. What will our community look like at 100k or 125k? What effects will that have on traffic, housing, and other quality of life issues?

Is there anything else you would like to share with the project team regarding the scenario planning process and the development of growth scenarios? I’d like to see the FUTS extended to kachina/mountainaire so families don’t feel as removed from town by moving south. It’s hard for families who want to bike commute to live in Kachina area, but for many, that’s the only neighborhood they can afford.
