****UPDATE****
The Comprehensive Plan has been compiled and is now at the state level awaiting final approval. It will then have to be approved by the voters of Stockton Springs. The ordinances will then have to be updated.
WHAT IS A COMPREHENSIVE TOWN PLAN?
A comprehensive town plan is the PEOPLE of Stockton Springs' "DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE". This plan will provide access to state funding and choices on how our community will develop economically, culturally, and physically; as well as a road map for future growth.
HOW WILL IT AFFECT YOU?

 |
Promotes development to try to lower the property tax rate without loss of service. |
