Assisting in the preparation of a Comprehensive Plan that meets criteria the State of Maine Planning Office uses to review community comprehensive plans for consistency with the goals and guidelines of the Growth Management Act (30-A M.R.S.A. §§ 4312 – 4350) and for certification under §4347-A(2)

Establishing an overall vision for the future of the town and concrete goals for achieving this vision

Incorporating plan elements that are reflective of town goals of social equity, economic development, and public health and safety
