PREFACE
This comprehensive Plan for Friendswood has been prepared
by the Friendswood Planning and Zoning Commission. It is
a update of and replaces the Comprehensive Plan dated
January 1969 that was prepared for the City of Friendswood
by Eovay Engineers, Inc., and William C. Walsh, Consulting
Engineer.
Others who helped in the preperation of this Comprehensive
Plan include the City Manager and staff (sections 6,7,10,11,
12), the Clear Creek Drainage District (section 8), the
Friendswood Independent School District (table 3 ),
1.0 INTRODUCTION
This Comprehensive Plan for Friendswood is intended as a documentary
guide for the orderly and desirable physical development of the City
and its planning area. It is not meant to be stringently binding,
but sufficiently flexible to the extent that adjustments can be made
to absorbe changes in community characteristics and technological
advances in physical urban development processes.
The Comprehensive Plan can only be accomplished through a coordinated
effort of private investments and public improvements regulated to the
general interests of the people of Friendswood. This plan must receive
the understanding and support of the citizens and public officials if
it is to be carried out. It should be periodically reviewed and up-
dated to meet changing needs.

Approved, adoption and adherence to the Friendswood Comprehensive
Plan will provide a basis for authority in planning matters insuring
that minor refinements will be worked out through the City Planning
and Zoning Commission. Alterations will be made only through the
recommendations of the Planning and Zoning Commission with approval
of the City Council.
2.0
The Comprehensive Plan for Friendswood pertains to the elements of the
urban structure and its expansion with three goals:
To help the City solve existing problems.
To guide future growth toward a specific, desirable and
economical pattern.
To use land area and the valuable resources to the better-
ment of everyone.
The first and most important consideration in the development of
Friendswood is its people. Some of the objectives which fall under
the three goals stated above are:
To establish and maintain a physical environment that can
be adequately serviced and that will promote the health,
safety, and general welfare of the community.
To provide adequate water supply and waste disposal facilities.
To protect the developed area from damaging flooding and hazardous
living conditions.
To protect residential area from mixed and incompatible land uses.
To provide and encourage greater safety in vehicular movements.
To provide opportunities to use and enjoy park and recreational
areas.
To preserve social traditions and historical heritage.
To preserve the small-town rural character of the community.
To promote and encourage the development of commercial and
industrial businesses that are not objectionable to the
citizens of Friendswood and that will stregthen our economic base.
To maintain and improve the community appearance.
