Activity Center

In the Innovate phase, we focus on shaping Noble’s future by developing a land use map and plan that align with the community’s vision and goals. Working closely with City staff, the Steering Committee, key stakeholders, and the public, we’ll explore various development possibilities and refine them into a plan that balances land use, infrastructure needs, and financial considerations. The final outcome will be a Preferred Land Use Map and a supporting framework that acts as a roadmap for Noble’s future growth, development, and investment.

How Can I Participate in Phase 4?

• Community Workshop #3: Shaping Noble’s Future – Thank you to everyone who joined us at the in-person event on April 22 or completed the online Workshop Activity! Community feedback from both formats helped us understand preferences for development patterns, neighborhood character, and future land use priorities. You can view the FLUM Activity Summary Report in the Document & Resource Center.
• Focus Groups – Thank you to everyone who participated in the Land Use Focus Group workshop earlier this spring. This small group discussion provided valuable insight into development tradeoffs and directly informed the growth scenarios and Draft Preferred Land Use Map. The focus group portion of the process is now complete.
