Mission On Upcoming "New Plan For Mobile"

"Our mission is to achieve the results that will prepare the city to compete in a global market for better jobs, a cleaner environment and quality services that will make each of us proud to live, work, and play in Mobile."

The City of Mobile is experiencing rapid success on many fronts - employment, the economy, education and economic development. Though the city’s future is extremely bright, we are mindful that continued progress will require planning and a comprehensive blueprint that carefully directs our future path.

This blueprint cannot be produced without every segment - business, civic, neighborhoods and faith-based - in the study area participating. Our city is made up of many positive amenities, but none greater than citizens. Exceptional people, that’s what makes Mobile, Alabama an exceptional place to live. What better way to improve the city’s physical character or municipal services than to ask the exceptional people who proudly call these boundaries home.

Though each City Council leader represent different areas, there is a common tread that binds us all together - determination to insure that parts of the city reach its fullest potential. The current "New Plan For Mobile," includes a ten mile radius - from the downtown waterfront to Houston Street in midtown; to the south ending at Arlington Street; and areas along Three Mile Creek.

The "New Plan For Mobile," is the core philosophy that directs all development activities in the city. Our mission in the plan will include looking at the following:

• Visions of the future
• Ability to grow and expand
• Enhancements as the economic engine to the region
• Sustainable communities
• Connect world to regional opportunities and attractions
• Economic development
• High quality infrastructure
• Business friendly
• Viable neighborhoods
• Quality public services
