Participate in the development and review of the inventory and analysis of existing conditions in various topic areas;
Participate in the public engagement program;
Along with the general public, refine the vision statement;
Participate in the development of policies, goals, and strategies, and the future land use plan;
Participate in the public presentation of the final draft comprehensive plan.

Agendas for these meetings will be posted here as well as other documents including draft inventory chapters that will make up the new comp plan, surveys, maps and other documents.

There is also another webpage to visit called IMAGINE STANDISH. This website will have more and more info posted to it as the process gets underway and there is a mailing list you can sign up for at the bottom of this website that will send out news and updates about the project.

The content of the Comprehensive Plan itself is in part determined by the state, if you are interested in learning about those, you can go HERE clicking on "self-assessment checklist" in the top list of links.
