August 15, 2012 STURBRIDGE — The Central Massachusetts Regional Planning Commission (CMRPC) will host a public forum at the Publick House next month to allow residents to share their thoughts on its 13-town collaborative project.
The CMRPC's project objective is to create a shared framework for identifying regional and local priorities for growth, development, higher education, land preservation, transportation, and other infrastructure investments. This planning effort will be conducted in a cooperative fashion with local and regional participants – including Mass Audubon – and will engage the public, private, and non-profit sectors to form the framework for public involvement in future land use decisions within the 13 communities.
"This forum is going to be the first opportunity for all participating communities to see what neighboring towns have identified as priorities," said Vera Kolias, the CMRPC's principal planner.
