Envisioning the future of your community can be a powerful experience. Creating a Vision Statement, based on shared values and future hopes can act as a catalyst for change and commitment. Key to this process is active community participation, capturing diverse viewpoints and wide representation of community interests and taking a longer view of the community's assets. And, don't forget the elders and the children in the community! Elders have experienced change in their long lives and children know what they like! Successful visioning gives people several opportunities to participate, either directly in workshops and town meetings or through mail-in surveys and interactive web sites. Although a community's vision should be grounded in realistic expectations, explore beyond that which is practical today...for tomorrow may bring new leadership, new opportunities and new advances in science and technology.

|  The Community General Plan establishes the direction and form for the development of Hacienda Heights, setting forth broad guidelines for the extent and nature of growth. The Plan is comprehensive, being based on an analysis of such physical features of the community as geology and seismicity, slope and vegetation. The social environment and its relationship to physical features are also considered. These interrelationships determine the type of community which is desired in the future as well as the kinds of growth which can be tolerated. The plan provides a long range look at the community so that appropriate facilities will be provided.
