Narberth Comprehensive Plan This link takes you to draft of the proposed Comprehensive Plan on the Borough website. A Comprehensive plan is a long-range planning tool that helps municipalities guide future growth and development. It provides broad goals and specific strategies and implementation recommendations that form the basis for future decision-making to achieve the vision for the future. How and why is Narberth creating a comprehensive plan? Narberth Borough set out to adopt its first Comprehensive plan to identify the community’s shared vision for the future and establish guidelines for a coordinated implementation of strategies to aid in achieving this vision. This plan is the result of a year-long process of data gathering and public input to establish the community vision and attempts to answer the question of what defines “Narberth”. The plan links the various causes and effects of change in the borough, and provides goals and recommendations to guide borough leaders in making decisions that will further the goals of the community. How do I participate? You can attend one of the upcoming public meetings or provide feedback via the link provided on the Borough’s website, or here. All these events and more are listed in this Narberth calendar. To stay up to date between these emails, use the Narberth online website, Facebook page, Twitter and Instagram, and join the conversation in the "Narberth" Facebook group.  |
