“The master planning process is critical in preparing Jonesboro for the projected growth we anticipate over the next three decades. This is an excellent opportunity for residents to get involved, be active and have a say in how we prepare for the future together as a community.”
Mayor Harold Copenhaver
As Northeast Arkansas’s largest and fastest-growing city, Jonesboro has experienced rapidly expanding economic and social opportunity. Exponential growth also places pressure on housing, transportation safety, utilities, and the parks, trails, and public spaces that support daily life and attract talent. Plan Jonesboro will provide a clear, community-informed framework to guide land use and development, infrastructure investment, mobility, parks and recreation, and public services—guiding local strategies to strengthen neighborhoods, expand mobility choices, and preserve the character and resources that make the city an engaging, economical, and resilient place to live, work, play, and visit.
