To begin the Thrive 2040 process, we asked for the community to share thoughts and ideas about what makes Johnston thrive and to help us understand community concerns and issues. Over 400 people provided input via on-line surveys and interactive maps, conversations at community events (like Kites on the Green and community picnics), and focus group conversations with various stakeholder groups. In this phase of the process we are asking community members to provide their feedback on the DRAFT 2040 Planned Land Use for the Johnston area. 

Icons (at the top of the page) can be dragged onto the map to comment on specific areas of interest, feel free to place multiple markers per category. Categories are as follows:

•  Good Location for this Land Use: Use this marker for various areas to let us know that you agree with the application of the land use guidance.

•  The Land Use Here Concerns Me: Use this marker for various areas where you believe the land use guidance doesn't quite fit the area that it is applied to. Please provide a comment with this pin to let us know why the location for this land use is concerning.

Note: Your email address and information are required to comment, but will not be displayed next to your comment and will be collected for notification purposes only. Check "Remember Me" to autofill your information for multiple comments. Thank you!

Thanks for taking a few minutes to provide your input on the map, and please contact David Wilwerding with questions about this online map or about the Johnston Thrive 2040 Plan.
