More about Town Plans

A town plan is a planning document that serve as a long-term guide for future decisions the town will need to make around land use, infrastructure and more. Town plans reflect the vision of the community for the future of the town and identify what steps are needed to achieve that vision. The town plan serves as the basis for the town’s zoning regulations. A town plan must be updated every 8 years.
