Tiffin Comprehensive Plan – Updated 2018

Implementation and Administration Implementation Responsibility for adopting and implementing future planning initiatives remains with the community guided by its civic and elected leadership. Generally the following principles guide implementation priorities:  Focus on strategies, initiatives and projects that will have the most impact on the community when completed.  Move forward on strategies, initiatives and projects that can be completed quickly, have significant public support or have available funding. Completion of these initiatives or projects creates significant visibility for recovery and helps solidify community and political support for continued recovery activities. It is important to note that this plan does not establish any new ordinance or legislative mandate. The goals and policies contained in the plan are to be used as a guide for local officials in decision making and implementing specific developmental tools, such as the zoning and subdivision ordinances. While adoption of this plan does not commit the city to any specific recommendations, it should commit the city to actions that are consistent with the policy guidelines and action steps contained in the plan. This section presents an implementation schedule for the recommendations, summarizing the actions proposed by the plan. Each action is listed generally in the order presented in the plan. The action is then given a specific time frame for implementation. Each dot is representative of a completion date. The schedule does not list ongoing policies or day-to-day actions the city should continuously undertake (i.e. maintenance of the city’s street system). In this way, the schedule can be used to monitor the progress of the plan. This is an important role of the update process that will be necessary to keep this document dynamic and up-to-date.
