Goals in the Comprehensive Plan express what our residents hope and want Bend to be like in the future. These goals were created through a major update of the Comprehensive Plan in 1995-1998 and further enhanced in 2016 with the UGB expansion. The goals set forth below provide general guidance for improving the character and quality of the Bend area as growth occurs. In addition to these goals, most of the other chapters in the Plan include goals that are specific to the chapter topic.
