THE TOWN OF STANFORD’S MASTER PLAN-UPDATE- JULY 2011

Where we’ve been this year

Since the beginning of this year, the Committee has been working hard with a professional planner to make the Master Plan a reality.  We set an aggressive schedule and have been meeting weekly or biweekly to get our job done.   We have met with various stakeholder groups in town, and held a town public meeting on February 28, 2010 which was extraordinarily well attended.  We are now approximately 75% through our process and are in the midst of writing a draft Master Plan. 

Get Involved

Please visit our website (www.stanfordmasterplan.org) for our meeting notes and detailed information on the Committee and on the Town.  Audio CD’s of our meetings are available in the Town Clerk’s office.  We welcome you to our meetings, which are usually on the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays of each month at 7:30 in the Town Hall (but check the Town web site for possible changes).  We offer an opportunity for citizens to speak to the Committee at the beginning of each meeting.  Or feel free to contact us directly and express your opinions.  Our goal is to make this an open government process so that the Master Plan
