Pursuant to the requirements of the Michigan Planning Enabling Act (Act 33 of 2008, as amended), we are in the process of updating the City’s Comprehensive Master Plan (adopted June 20, 2016). 

We encourage you to follow the progress of the plan on our Public Input site, where we introduce weekly topics to obtain information from City stakeholders (residents, business owners, people who visit the city for recreation, shopping, dining, and work). You will have the opportunity to respond to a series of questions pertaining to a range of topics that affect us all. Additional information on the Comprehensive Master Plan process may be found by clicking on the left sidebar under Comprehensive Master Plan.

Further, if you would like to receive any future notices regarding the City of Southfield’s Comprehensive Master Plan update electronically, please e-mail your request along with your e-mail address to: contactplanning@cityofsouthfield.com or Terry Croad, Planning Director, 26000 Evergreen Road, P.O.
