Comprehensive Plan Planning Advisory Committee

Description

The City of Watertown is updating its 2015 Comprehensive Plan with a primary focus on four specific areas:

(1) land use,
(2) economic development,
(3) transportation, circulation, and parking and
(4) open space and recreation.

One of the most critical components of the process will be community engagement in identifying key issues and opportunities, and revisiting goals and implementation strategies contained in the 2015 Plan. The City has formed a Planning Advisory Committee (PAC) of seven members. The PAC is focusing on:

1. public engagement
2. identifying key issues
3. planning documents content

The PAC will be meeting throughout the planning process until a final plan is approved by the Planning Board and the City Council estimated to be in March or April of 2023.

Meetings will be held as needed; the PAC could meet monthly during some parts of the process. Meetings will be public, either remote or hybrid (in person, with a remote option).

Visit the Comprehensive Plan website. Please visit the project website to learn more about the planning process, previous and upcoming activities and documents, upcoming public meetings, and other opportunities to participate.
