Comprehensive Plan Implementation Committee
Volunteers Needed: Comprehensive Plan Implementation Committee
The Town is seeking residents to serve on its Comprehensive Plan Implementation Committee—a working committee focused on turning the Town’s Comprehensive Plan into real, measurable action.
The Comprehensive Plan reflects the community’s shared vision for the future. This committee’s role is to help ensure that vision is actively used to guide Town decisions, investments, and policies.
What the Committee Will Do
Committee members will help:
• Translate long-term plan goals into practical, achievable actions
• Review and recommend ordinances, policies, and capital projects that align with the Comprehensive Plan
• Track progress on plan goals and report regularly to Town boards
• Support consistent, transparent decision-making across Town government
• Help prioritize public investments and community improvements
• Guide responsible growth and development
Who Should Apply
The Town is seeking a mix of perspectives, including:
• 3 Community members
• 3 Key Stakeholder members (Business, Conservation Commission, and/or former Comprehensive Plan Committee Member)
• 2 Planning Board Members
• 1 Budget-Finance Committee Member
• 1 Select Board Member
• Town Manager or Staff Liaison
*Note: The Town Manager, Select Board, and Budget-Finance Committee representatives serve as ex-officio, non-voting members.*
Meetings will generally be held monthly, with additional meetings during active phases.
