Envision Lakeville
In 2013 the City of Lakeville adopted the initial Envision Lakeville report. The purpose of the report is to help community leaders, residents and business owners establish an informed, reasoned and cohesive picture of how the community wants to grow into the future. The plan sets forth a 25-year vision for the future of Lakeville by outlining a set of community values and strategic priorities, while providing a list of key initiatives and an action plan to make the vision a reality.
The plan is reviewed every five years to ensure the vision is still relevant as the city grows and develops. The development of the report and the subsequent updates included extensive input from the community, including citywide surveys, an Envision Lakeville Taskforce, and meetings with the City Council's advisory boards and commissions.

During the summer of 2020, the Lakeville City Council formed a workgroup to advise the City on conducting a series of community conversations on race. The workgroup is made up of a broad cross-section of Lakeville residents who expressed interest in serving the community. The workgroup continues to meet and is making progress on setting up future citywide conversations.
