Project Overview

Elevate Goldsboro is our chance to take a fresh look at our city's future.

As a comprehensive plan, it considers specific actions that can better align growth and development with local values curated through community conversations. The planning process lets the community…

Work collaboratively to IMAGINE an ideal future,

Express a PLAN to achieve that future, and

Create a strategy upon which the city can ACT in the years to come.

A key piece of the plan will be the Future Land Use Map, which will guide future growth and development. A series of framework elements will support the land use strategy. These framework elements will touch on topics such as:

  • Transportation + Mobility
  • Economic Development
  • Housing
  • Infrastructure + Public Services
  • Recreation + Trails
  • Natural Resources + Environmental

Another thing Goldsboro should do is make the city more walkable and have more "complete streets" like what they have in some cities.

Well, we need more industry. That way people can have ACTUAL good paying jobs instead of just working at a gas station or restaurant.

Goldsboro should expand the downtown investment to streets adjacent to Center Street and connect key areas through safe biking paths.
