The LINC Steering Committee was established in 1999 by the Lafayette City-Parish
Council and then met for two years. The appointments were from both the Lafayette
City-Parish Planning Commission and the Lafayette City-Parish Council. The LINC
Steering Committee produced a series of recommendations that were subsequently
approved as part of the LINC Comprehensive Master Plan in 2007.
After the Collaboration Ordinance was passed by Council in 2009 the LINC Citizen Committee
began looking at the recommendations approved in 2007 and updating them. The Land Use Framework and
Implemenation Strategies was their first directive and was approved by Council in 2010. The Transporation
Recommendations and Corridor Planning Process was their second document. Staff is preparing to take this
document to public hearing.
