They have been told by the city nothing is etched in stone.
Realtor Hodges Hamm tells CHSJ News he can see why the city wants more development closer to the urban core but it's a lot more expensive to build.
Hamm warns if the zoning regulations are too tight, many people, who want a more rural type lifestyle, might choose to live in the outlying communities when the city needs a bigger tax base.
Having said that, Hamm says people who build on the outskirts should not expect city services if they're too far out.
The city wants Plan SJ to be adopted by July of next year. Hamm would like to see it reviewed every few years.
