EXISTING CITY

ISSUES LINKED TO DATA AND INPUT

The Existing City Data Book, included as an appendix to the Plan, highlights key indicators and background information
about Littleton as it is today. Compiling this data was step one in the 2019 Envision Littleton efforts to prepare a new
Comprehensive Plan and create a first-ever Transportation Master Plan (TMP).
The Data Book content for the Comprehensive Plan was based on initial background studies by the City’s community
planning consultant, Kendig Keast Collaborative. The intent was to avoid duplication of available, more extensive profiles
of Littleton. Instead, the booklet focuses on selected data points that speak to community values and priorities expressed
by residents and other stakeholders as input to the Vision Report adopted by City Council in December 2018. Narrative
within each section notes how a data point further validates aspects of the Vision Report and/or highlights essential
planning considerations for the years ahead. The examples below show how input and data ultimately shaped this Plan.
