| Governor Plans: Capital 2024 announced by city government
After almost a year of hiatus, the city government has finally announced the Capital 2024, a proper Governor plan for the city of Parkland. The fourth revision of the city's master plan, which had also been long delayed, was also unveiled on the same day, with four new districts from the previous master plan in order to meet area requirements for the first stage of the planned Parkland-Berkeley International Airport. While the city government only announced the first stage of the project to be completed by late 2023, which is already incredibly ambitious, there are still plans for the city to expand even further east with more satellite towns. |
