    Redmond : Comprehensive plan
    (City of Redmond (Or.), 2001-06-22) Redmond (Or.)
    Redmond's Comprehensive land use planning, required by Oregon law, creates goals and policies that support good jobs and affordable homes, protects natural resources, and preserves historic buildings. The Comprehensive Plan is a guide to the future growth, development and redevelopment of the Redmond urban area within a framework of goals and policies consistent with the physical characteristics, ideas and resources of the community. The Goals and Policies respond to the needs and conditions which exist presently and will provide the initial guidance for future City programs, major capital projects and other funding decisions for the next 20+ years. Redmond's planning challenge is to reinforce and strengthen the livability of our community in the face of rapid regional growth. [From the Plan]

    Redmond : Downtown preliminary development plan implementation memo
    (City of Redmond (Or.), 2007-04-27) Redmond (Or.); SERA Architects; Johnson Gardner; H & A Construction
    The Downtown Preliminary Development Plan lays out a development vision that is intended to reinvigorate Redmondâ s Down-town core. It envisions a unique, mixed-use heart for Redmond that responds to and strengthens the historic character of the district, provides economic opportunities, invites pedestrian traffic, and creates an attractive community destination point. The plan divides the Downtown into three sub-districts (the Civic Core, 6th Street, and East Downtown), describes an appropriate mix of uses for each sub-district, and posits potential locations for those uses. Included with the plan are a series of implementation measures and strategies. The plan recommends various public investments designed to meet current City needs as well as induce private redevelopment efforts. As such, the plan is meant to guide City-level decision-making regarding strategic invest-ments, policy decisions, and public-private partnerships. [From the Plan]
