City staff presented Resolution No. 18‑20‑25 to create a comprehensive plan steering committee to guide an extensive update of the city’s comprehensive plan and related elements including water efficiency and conservation, housing needs assessment, downtown planning, recreation, fire services and climate resilience.

Staff described the proposed committee composition: a county representative, an Adams State University/Trinidad State representative, an Alamosa School District representative, a youth representative, a chamber/economic‑development or planning‑commission designee, a city councilor, a recreation‑board representative, housing and childcare representatives, one member from each ward (four total) and one representative from the faith community. Staff reported the RFP had been downloaded 184 times and said they expect a strong response to the procurement.

Councilor Hensley moved to adopt the resolution; the motion was seconded and carried unanimously. Staff characterized the project as broad in scope and likened it to a "mother of all plans," noting it will combine multiple planning efforts into a single process.
