What will Herndon look and feel like in 2050?
That’s the big question behind Herndon 2050 — the Town of Herndon’s Comprehensive Plan update that will help shape policies, priorities, and decision-making for the next 20 years.
This is more than a planning document. It’s a vision for tomorrow.
Right now, the Town is asking residents, business owners, community stakeholders, and visitors to participate in an important first step: the Herndon 2050 community survey. While there will be additional opportunities for engagement throughout the planning process, this initial survey is critical in helping establish the community’s priorities and overall vision for the future of Herndon.
The survey closes Monday, May 18 at 11:59:59 PM.

Planning for the Next Generation of Herndon
The Comprehensive Plan serves as the Town’s long-range policy guide and influences how Herndon grows, develops, and invests in the future over time. The decisions made through this process will help shape the community for current residents and future generations alike.
The new plan will establish policies and recommendations covering a wide range of topics, including:
- Land use and development
- Parks and recreation
- Transportation and mobility
- Environmental sustainability
- Economic development
- Historic and cultural resources
- Stormwater management
- Public spaces and urban design
- Architecture and open space
- Housing
- Connectivity and infrastructure
In short, Herndon 2050 will help guide how the Town evolves — from neighborhoods and business districts to trails, parks, transportation systems, gathering spaces, and redevelopment opportunities.

The Town wants to hear directly from the people who live, work, and spend time in Herndon. What should the community prioritize? What should be preserved? Where are there opportunities for improvement? What kind of experience should Herndon provide 20 years from now? (more…)
