Developing a land acquisition plan for Princeton was designated the top goal as the City Council met for a two-day strategic retreat at Globe Life Park in Arlington.
A land acquisition plan was followed closely by building economic value and updating the city’s comprehensive plan.
Next came enhancing building standards and attracting entertainment events and venues. Then creating a medical district and coming up with a strategic plan for multi-family allowances rounded out the list.
Items that did not get a vote included enhanced walkability, a more diverse array of residential home, wider streets and trails and revitalizing downtown or building a new downtown.
“I am sad walkability, sidewalk and trails was not selected,” said community activist Elamurugu Vaiyapuri, the only citizen who attended the meeting. “I walk and we have a hike group that walks starting 8 a.m. on Saturdays.”
