We had a great time coming together for the opening of the new Keep Tularosa Beautiful classroom and workshop and the community celebration! It was wonderful to come together with neighbors, students, families, Trustees, friends, and new friends, all in celebration of the future of Tularosa.

A comprehensive plan looks at all of the "parts" of a community and considers how the Village of Tularosa can help achieve the future that residents want to see. The plan will include strategies around the future of the local economy and businesses, water, parks and public facilities, housing, roads, and more.
This plan will identify local needs as well as a community vision and provide strategies to achieve broader goals. The Village can use this type of plan to make decisions related to public investments in programming and facilities.
The plan assesses and evaluates the following community elements
Zoning and land use regulations, future growth planning...
Water, air, land, soil, conservation, protection, sustainability...
Local and regional industries, workforce development, education, tourism, outdoor recreation...
Housing stock, physical conditions, affordability, home ownership, rental units...
Village facilities, schools, parks, senior center, library, programs, events, etc...
Historic districts, historical events, cultural landmarks, preservation incentives...
Emergency preparedness, drought, extreme heat, floods, storms...
Roadways, water and sewer systems, public utilities...
The comprehensive plan guides Village-level decision-making and investments toward a community-determined future.
The needs and opportunities in your community must be identified to begin making meaningful progress toward addressing them.
This plan determines the priority actions the Village should be taking toward a 20-30 year vision.
Local organizations can also use the plan in grant or funding applications to demonstrate public support for specific projects or goals.
The community vision is the core of the plan. Your involvement and feedback is key to understanding where we, as a community, want to be in 20-30 years.
To do this, the planning team will be visiting Tularosa to talk with folks about issues, opportunities, and vision for the future. Stay tuned for upcoming engagement opportunities!
Mark your calendars, Tulie! We'll be back May 2-4th with plenty of ways to get involved in the plan.
