Cibolo is planning for its future with a Comprehensive Plan Update! The Comprehensive Plan is the City's tool for establishing and realizing a vision for the future build-out of the community.
We will collect feedback as we craft the Plan together through in-person community events, this interactive project website, a Master Plan Advisory Committee (MPAC), and several other sources and opportunities, so stay tuned!
The Comprehensive Plan will have an approximately 20 year outlook (to the year 2050) and will include short-term, mid-term, and long-term goals, strategies, and actions.

What is a Comprehensive Plan?
A Comprehensive Plan, sometimes called a Master Plan, is a document that expresses a community's values and desires for the future. It provides a basis for development decisions, laws, regulations, and policies. It consists of a single plan or coordinated set of plans organized by subject and sometimes geographic area. It is a policy document that includes an implementation plan for use by City Officials. While a comprehensive plan states the community’s vision for the future, it does not constitute zoning regulations or establish zoning district boundaries.
Thank you to all our residents and stakeholders who participated in the planning process for the 2024 Cibolo Tomorrow Comprehensive Plan!
The Cibolo Tomorrow Comprehensive Plan, which was adopted on September 10, 2024, is available for review and download below.
