Orlando's  Growth Management Plan describes the City's vision of itself in the future, and translates that into policies, programs, and public investments.  It was adopted in 1991 and was updated in 1998 through a comprehensive planning process.  Since then, the City has amended the GMP twice per year in accordance with state law.  
More information about the amendment process

The City is currently preparing another update of the GMP through a state-mandated process called the Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR).  The City of Orlando's EAR is due on November 1, 2007.

The GMP is organized into Elements, or chapters, addressing the following issues:

All Elements are downloadable in PDF format.  A paper copy of the entire GMP is available for review at the Planning Division.

The Official Future Land Use Map Series, a visual representation of the type, intensity, and location of development that will be allowed to occur throughout the City, is also included in the GMP.  This map series, which forms the basis for zoning, depicts the development patterns that will accommodate projected population growth while protecting existing neighborhoods and ensuring the long-term livability of our community.
