COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING COMMITTEE

What is a Comprehensive Land Use Plan?

​

The Comprehensive Land Use Plan is a long-term roadmap for the future of our community. It reflects what residents value most and outlines goals for how we want the Town to grow, develop, and improve over time.

​

This Plan guides decisions on things like land use, housing, transportation, local services, and economic development. It helps Town officials make consistent, informed choices — and it can also strengthen our applications for grants and outside funding.

​

Planning for the future isn’t just about zoning or infrastructure. It’s about asking important questions:

​

• What kind of businesses do we want to attract?

• What types of housing do we need?

• How can we keep our neighborhoods safe, connected, and family-friendly?

• Where do we want to preserve open space or expand recreation?​

​

Community input plays a vital role in the planning process. Residents help shape the plan by sharing their experiences, concerns, and ideas. The more voices we hear, the stronger the plan becomes — and the better it reflects the people who call LeRay home.​
