Comprehensive Planning
Comprehensive planning is governed by Texas Local Government Code Chapter 213.
The City of San Marcos hosts the “Comprehensive Planning for Small Texas Cities” document. Some of the information is a little older, but the ideas surrounding the purpose and usefulness of comprehensive remain useful.
