FORT BEND COUNTY, TEXAS (Feb. 11, 2016) – Stafford has created a visionary new comprehensive plan, which lays the strategic foundation for the city’s growth and development for the next 20 years. It replaces the original plan, which was adopted by the city council in 1971. This living document will provide a guide for the city’s decision-makers and is structured around three key parameters: the importance of being fiscally responsible; living within the city’s means; and maintaining no general obligation debt.


“The comprehensive plan creates an incredibly exciting opportunity for Stafford, providing an aspirational, yet realistic and achievable, roadmap for the future,” said Leonard Scarcella, mayor of

Stafford. “The purpose of the plan is twofold; it tells the story of what Stafford is and what the city

wishes to become as it grows and redevelops. We have worked hard to establish a reputation as a

fantastic place to start a business; we intend to expand on this and make Stafford even more

competitive and attractive to current and future residents and businesses.”
