West Arlington Sub-Area Plan
The Mayor and City Council have identified the need to create a detailed, unifying plan that effectively manages growth and development in the western region of the city. This is accomplished through the creation of a sub-area plan. The West Arlington Sub-Area Plan includes the neighborhoods of Smokey Point, West Bluff and Island Crossing.
