This category includes plans, often officially adopted as subordinate parts of comprehensive plans, for smaller units of a city, such as neighborhoods, downtown areas or central business districts (CBDs). These documents may also be called "refinement plans" or "community plans". A special case is the sort of community plan that must be produced before lands newly included in the Portland Metro Urban Growth Boundary may be developed.

Bend : Central area plan (2007)
(City of Bend (Or.), 2007-09-28) Bend (Or.); Parametrix, Inc.; Leland Consulting Group; Otak, Inc.; Hara Shick Architecture
The primary objectives of the Bend Central Area Plan (CAP) are fourfold. First and foremost, the CAP is a central area “improvement” plan, one that builds upon the good “bones” of the current Historic Downtown Core area, and upon the sound foundation of community-based planning for the area. Second, the CAP is intended to serve as the “master conceptual plan” for the Central Area, including the identification of central neighborhoods and the Third Street Reinvention. Third, the CAP is intended to correspond with the objectives of the Bend Vision 2030 Plan, as that plan designates Bend’s downtown area as a vibrant multi-use area. Finally, the overarching objective of the Plan is to ensure that the Bend Central Area will serve the community and region’s future needs for an active, mixed-use urban area. [From the Plan]

The downtown code recommendations can be incorporated at that time. [From the Plan]
