2009 Comprehensive Plan ~ Action Projects
Economic Development
The enduring competitive advantages in a global economy
lie increasingly in local things… knowledge, relationships,
and a motivation that distant rivals cannot match.  Planning
encourages growth while retaining a balance between
residential neighborhoods and business/industrial centers
and at the same time retains the integrity and heritage that
makes Alexandria unique.
Community Facilities
To improve and maintain the infrastructure of Alexandria in
a way that enhances community pride, provides a tool for
managing growth, and ensures the well being of the community.
Quality of Life
Vision for Alexandria must be based on common purpose and
common concern for all residents.  It must build on strengths in
community foundations of rich heritage and civic pride.  A vibrant
community for all citizens will work towards much higher levels
of productivity, educational attainment, and quality of life
encouraging greater civic participation and rewards.
Land Use
To manage the growth and development of Alexandria in a way
that contributes positively to the community. To encourage the
orderly, responsible development of land in order to promote
the community goals, and to determine and direct land use
patterns in the most positive way for the community as a whole,
in a manner consistent with its long term interests.
Transportation
The City of Alexandria will strive to continue to make the
community connected by all means of transportation modes. It
will honor its past connection to transportation heritage while
continuing to develop better road, rail, and pedestrian modes
of transportation which will enhance the growth and
development of Alexandria.
