ENVISION SHAKOPEE 2040 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN Envision Shakopee is the comprehensive planning and visioning tool for the City to use as it makes decisions regarding future development and livability in the City of Shakopee. The City has grown rapidly and greatly recently, and this planning document serves as guidelines to ensure physical, social, and economic development is in line with priorities identified by the community, supported by a team of professional consultants and committees. Among the development priorities identified in Envision Shakopee, the community has recognized the need for additional park and trail connections and more places for gathering. The comprehensive plan further elaborates on big ideas for Shakopee, many of which are dependent on strong green connections and spaces for people to move and gather. A vision for the riverfront is illustrated as highly developed and programmed, allowing residents and visitors to rediscover the river as an activated gateway to the City and downtown. Trail greenways connecting people to the community and neighborhood parks across the city, across major roads, major employment centers, and new developments are embedded in multiple planning sections. Overall, Envision Shakopee has a strong emphasis on connections and green space for the City, with these themes threading through all sections of the plan.
