Technical Background Report The first major step in the General Plan Update process is the establishment of baseline conditions and trends in the City. The Technical Background Report (TBR) provides a descriptive profile of the City of Oakdale's existing conditions and serves as the "environmental setting" for the General Plan Update Environmental Impact Report (EIR). The TBR presents the physical, social, and economic information required to support the preparation of the general plan. It serves as the foundation document from which subsequent planning policies and programs will be formulated. The Oakdale TBR is based on data and information available as of August 2009. |

Vision Statement The 2030 General Plan update process builds upon the existing strengths and values of Oakdale, while balancing new opportunities, challenges, and initiatives. As a part of this process, the Vision Statement communicates the shared ideals and desires for the future of Oakdale and establishes the foundation for the 2030 General Plan. The General Plan recognizes that change must be managed carefully to sustain Oakdale's quality of life, economic vitality, social well-being, and environmental resources. Beyond the General Plan, the Vision Statement is intended to influence all activities which shape the future of Oakdale. |
Planning Issues Report The Planning Issues Report identifies and describes the key physical, environmental, economic, cultural, and social issues to be considered in the General Plan Update. It provides a tool to help focus community attention and stimulate discussion on those issues that may have major policy implications as the City of Oakdale defines its future. The Report purposely does not reach conclusions or suggest how the City should address the issues and develop the General Plan. Instead, it acts as a tool to compile and catalogue those issues in a single place to help facilitate and document input received from the City Council, City Staff, stakeholders, and the community. Further, the Planning Issues Report is not static. It is anticipated that the identification of issues will continue throughout the General Plan Update process as additional information is generated and public input is received. |
