What’s your vision for Webster’s future?

I’m re-posting this blog from a few weeks ago because a LOT more people need to see it and respond to it.

The Town of Webster is updating its Comprehensive Plan, and they want to hear from as many Webster residents as possible — and so far that hasn’t been many. A successful Comprehensive Plan requires substantial public input and community engagement. They’re hoping to get those through various community events forums and surveys, to gather we hope to gather feedback and ideas to help shape Webster’s Bicentennial Plan.

There’s a survey out there right now that they’d like everyone to fill out, and the deadline has been extended to July 30 to accommodate as many participants as possible.

The Comprehensive Plan, developed in accordance with New York State law, will establish clear objectives for the community’s future development while protecting its natural and cultural resources. The plan emphasizes smart growth principles including mixed-use development, diverse housing options, sustainable infrastructure, distinctive community character, improved mobility, and climate resilience.

Through extensive community collaboration, the plan aims to create a guiding document that will identify long-range recommendations for future land use, zoning, housing, transportation, economic and community development, open space preservation, and more.

You can read more about the project on the project webpage, and you can see a recap of the public meeting held in April by clicking here, where you’ll also find the survey.
