Let's Create Timnath's Future!

Our last Comprehensive Plan update was in 2020, but a lot has changed in just a few short years. Timnath has welcomed new homes, new businesses, and more people who are proud to call this place home. As we grow, we want to make sure we're planning in a way that protects what people love about Timnath - while setting the stage for a strong, thoughtful future.


This update gives us the chance to look at things a little differently. We're taking a fresh look at our land use designations to better reflect the character of different parts of Timnath. Rather than using traditional land use categories, we're shifting to a typology-based approach that provides more clarity about the intended look, feel, and function of each area - from neighborhoods and commercial corridors to mixed-use centers and open spaces. This approach will help ensure future development fits the context of each place and supports the kind of community we want to see over time.


We're also taking a closer look at economic development and the look and feel of our town -- things like how we attract the right kinds of businesses, how our neighborhoods and gathering places feel, and how we make Timnath even more welcoming, connected, and distinctly ours.


The updated Comprehensive Plan will guide big decisions in the years ahead -- from development and infrastructure to parks and housing. But most importantly, it's a plan shaped by the people who live and work here.


Stay Tuned and Get Involved!

We are excited for you to be part of this process. The Town of Timnath will have multiple opportunities throughout the process for the public to provide input in person and virtually. We look forward to seeing you at one of our open houses of pop-up events this year! We encourage you to sign up for project updates under the "Subscribe" link on this page.

Below is an anticipated schedule for the project and key points of engagement.

    Timnath’s Comprehensive Plan update is guided by a clear vision for the future and a set of guiding principles shaped by community input. Together, they describe what residents value most and how those values should guide decisions as the town grows and changes.

    Timnath’s Vision Statement and Guiding Principles were shaped by what the community has shared so far during the Comprehensive Plan update. Over the past several months, residents, business owners and stakeholders have provided input through surveys, open houses, pop‑up events, youth engagement and online activities via YourTimnath.org. This feedback highlighted common themes about what people value most—such as livable neighborhoods, access to parks and nature, attainable housing, a strong local economy and thoughtful, well‑coordinated growth.

    The Vision Statement reflects these shared aspirations by describing the kind of community Timnath is working toward over the long term. The Guiding Principles build on that vision by expressing the values that will guide future planning, investment, and decision‑making. Together, they serve as a community‑informed foundation for the next phase of the Comprehensive Plan, helping ensure that future policies and actions respond directly to what residents have told us matters most
