Every 10 years, Mt. Lebanon puts great time and effort into its strategic plan. It is required by the Pennsylvania Municipalities Planning Code and is called a Comprehensive Plan. Mt. Lebanon’s most recent plan, called Ascend Lebo, took 18 months to complete using a through community engagement plan that received more than 6,000 points of input. The results, compiled into the Ascend Lebo plan, will guide the municipality by influencing our planning and financial priorities for the next decade. The Commission officially adopted the plan in January 2024.
In Mt. Lebanon, we don’t do plans to let them wither away on a shelf. We consult them before our elected officials make decisions, our board members make recommendations and our staff takes action. We completed 97 percent of the recommendations in the 2013 Comprehensive Plan. To keep the community informed on plan implementation, we created this microsite, which will track the recommendations in real time.
Read the complete plan and appendix online or go to the AscendLebo website for more detail. You can also read the 2013 plan online.
If you have any questions, you may reach out to project team lead, Assistant Municipal Manager/Planner Ian McMeans.
This dashboard will follow the results for the plan, and will be updated quarterly over the next 10 years. You’ll find the five main categories listed here with the overall completion percentage. If you click into each subject area, you’ll specific goals, their completion percentages, along will action items and their status. This effort is to keep the public informed of our progress.
