The City of Newport News invites you to be part of the final step in shaping our future.
Join us for a series of interactive public workshops to review the draft One City, One Future 2045 Comprehensive Plan—the roadmap guiding how Newport News will grow, invest, and thrive over the next 20 years.
What is a Comprehensive Plan?
A comprehensive plan is a long-range vision for the city. It helps guide decisions about where homes, businesses, parks, and infrastructure should go—ensuring growth is thoughtful, balanced, and aligned with community priorities.
Why It Matters
This plan influences:
- Housing and neighborhood development
- Transportation and mobility
- Parks, recreation, and open space
- Economic development and job growth
- Public safety and environmental sustainability
Simply put—it shapes how Newport News lives, works, and grows together.
About This Workshop
This is your opportunity to review and respond to the draft plan created using your input.
Over the past several months, residents, stakeholders, and community partners have helped shape:
- The vision and guiding themes
- Strategic goals and priorities
- Key focus areas across the city
Now, we’re bringing it all together.
What to Expect
At the workshop, you will:
- Hear a brief presentation from city staff outlining the planning process, key updates, and major takeaways
- Explore the draft plan through interactive review stations
-
View the Future Land Use Map, which outlines how land across the city is envisioned to be used in the future
- Engage directly with staff to ask questions, share feedback, and discuss ideas
Your Voice Still Matters
Feedback collected during these workshops will be carefully reviewed and used to refine the final version of the plan before adoption.
This is your city. Your future. Your voice.
