5 Presentation of the Texas Chapter of the American Planning Association's "2015 Comprehensive
Planning Award"
Mr. Lee Battle, Assistant Director of Community Development, stated that the Allen 2030
Comprehensive Plan was a recipient of the Comprehensive Planning Award from the Texas Chapter of
the American Planning Association.
Mr. Battle stated that the Texas APA Chapter has an annual statewide award program that recognizes
planning projects from communities for outstanding contributions from the Planning field. The Award's
Committee is made up of practicing professional Planners from across the state that go through the
process of receiving and selecting awards In this particular case, there are five categories in which the
Chapter gives awards. This year, there were about 47 submittals the committee went through in order to
make their selections. They give about 2-3 awards per category It is a notable achievement to be
recognized through that process. In speaking with the members of the Award's Committee, they
mentioned that Allen's Comprehensive Plan was notable as it was customized for the community and
included elements unique to the City of Allen. They liked the public participation process as well. The
Committee also recognized that this particular planning project was done entirely in-house and without
the help of consultants, which is notable for a city of Allen's size.
Mr. Battle thanked the Planning and Zoning Commission and the community for putting in effort into this
project He congratulated everyone for the award.
Chairman Cocking thanked Mr. Battle for working on the Comprehensive Plan for two years
