In the state of Kansas, it’s required for cities to come up with a comprehensive plan (for zoning), which acts as a guide the city will follow for the next decade. The City of Parsons wanted to take this a step further, and thanks to collaborative efforts with its community, a new plan has come together. “Economic development used to be very specifically defined, those lines have blurred,” said Parsons Director of Economic Development Jim Zaleski. … the City of Parsons has come up with its most recent comprehensive plan. “It addresses everything in the city, from housing to retail, transportation, planning and zoning…We can refer to it, literally over the next decade.”
