A Comprehensive Plan is a long-range strategy that guides future development and addresses Village needs related to housing, commercial areas, transportation, sustainability, economic development, and more. It evaluates other areas, such as community character and Village services and facilities. Comprehensive Plans often also include Sub-Area Plans (more detailed plans for areas of town which benefit from more specific recommendations) which help to address and evaluate opportunities and constraints in defined areas of town.
