About the South Side Neighborhood Plan

Adopted by the South Side Planning Forum in June 1990, the South Side Neighborhood Plan includes a neighborhood description, development opportunities and constraints, and community issues and recommendations. The plan is supplemented by the South Side Riverfront Plan and a report on the South Side Works project, both adopted by the South Side Planning Forum in 1992. The South Side Neighborhood Plan is modified every two years to strengthen its credibility. The first modification occurred in 1992, and the last in 2008.
