The City of Shreveport adopted its updated master plan, "One Shreveport", on February 10, 2026, through City Council Resolution No. 7 of 2026.

The update retains the long-standing "Great Expectations" vision from the 2010 plan but shifts focus toward practical implementation. Four early priorities guide this effort: expanding neighborhood planning, tying capital budgeting to plan goals, strengthening staff and community capacity, and improving redevelopment efforts through partners such as the Shreveport Implementation and Redevelopment Authority (SIRA).

This Master Plan is intended as a long-term framework for evaluating development and public investment rather than a parcel-by-parcel mandate. Its main policy tools are two citywide maps: the "Future Land Use Map (FLUM)", which provides parcel-level guidance for future development patterns, and the "Greenprint", which identifies priority networks for parks, trails, and healthy community access. Together, these tools are designed to guide rezoning decisions, infrastructure investments, and neighborhood revitalization efforts over time.

Implementation focuses on governance, prioritization, and coordinated action rather than a single project list or fixed budget. Early steps include launching neighborhood planning pilots in Cedar Grove, Highland & Mooretown, developing tools such as property inventories and progress dashboards, and completing visible “quick win” improvements.

While the plan does not include a unified cost estimate, it calls for aligning annual budgets and capital programs with its priorities and coordinating with related initiatives such as Clean Water Shreveport, the 2024 city bond program and ongoing blight-reduction efforts.
