Public input from throughout the planning process has been used to develop a Preferred Growth Scenario (PDF) that describes how and where Fargo should grow. This Scenario will provide direction to the development of a draft plan.

Sign up for eNews and we'll let you know when a draft Growth Plan is ready for review and comment, and when future public meetings will be held.

Welcome!

Fargo Growth Plan 2024 is an effort to provide the City of Fargo with updated direction on where to grow and how to grow in the coming decades. It will be Fargo’s first updated growth plan since the last one was adopted in 2007.

Overview

Fargo’s new growth plan will provide long-range guidance on land use and land development to the City of Fargo, its partner agencies, and the private sector. As with Fargo’s previous growth plans, it will be used to inform updates to the Land Development Code (LDC), aid the development of capital investment plans for services and utilities, shape future transportation plans, and guide the development of new programs and policies related to development and redevelopment.
