The Ironwood Comprehensive Plan is a guiding document that provides a framework for local decision making and informs the direction of Ironwood’s future over the next 20 years. The Plan helps guide investment, growth, development, and redevelopment throughout Ironwood, offering a broad vision for the community and specific policies, goals, and strategies for how to achieve that vision.

Comprehensive plans cover topics including land use, transportation, infrastructure and civic facilities, parks and recreation, and community development. The plan helps us understand the big picture of where Ironwood is at today and where we want to be in the future.

In Fall 2025, the City contracted with HKGi to conduct this Zoning Code Audit. As the City is finalizing the update of its Comprehensive Plan, the City is also preparing for the subsequent updates that will be needed to its Zoning Code to align with the updated Plan and to implement the Plan. Zoning code updates should also support implementation of the recently approved housing study and the City’s redevelopment initiatives. The City wants to identify the issues, gaps, and complexities in the zoning code that serve as barriers to property development and redevelopment as well as make the zoning code difficult to use.

The City of Ironwood will begin flushing water mains beginning Sunday, May 10, 2026 to Friday, May 15, 2026.  Discoloration and change in pressure are expected while the system is being flushed.
