Lake Wales Comprehensive Plan Update

Inspire was selected by the City of Lake Wales to update its Comprehensive Plan, which had not been updated in almost 20 years. Updating the Plan was imperative due to the significant growth the City had experienced in the early to late 2000s. Incorporated in 1917, Lake Wales has a long history of planning by some of the most renowned landscape architects, planners, and urban designers of their time including the Olmsted Brothers (sons of Frederick Law Olmsted) and William Lyman Philips. Through the evaluation and appraisal review process, Inspire updated the entire Comprehensive Plan. The resulting Plan was guided by a steering committee made up of local business leaders, social activists, developers, and architects.
