1. Monroe Master Plan Survey

 

July 8, 2010

Dear Monroe Residents,

The Monroe Planning Board is in the process of developing a new updated Master Plan for the town. The purpose of the Master Plan is to outline the community’s desires for what the town should look like in the future, where development should take place and how it should be arranged, and what the priorities should be for resource protection. The Master Plan is implemented with the zoning ordinance, subdivision regulations, the town budget, and other municipal activities. We need to know your opinions about several topics to ensure the Master Plan accurately reflects the will of the community. Please take a few minutes to submit your answers to each of the following questions. Surveys can be dropped off at the Selectmen’s office during regular business hours, mailed to the town office to Master Plan Survey, Town of Monroe, P.O. Box 63, Monroe, NH 03771-0063, or completed online at monroetown.com. Responses must be received by August 15, 2010 to be considered. Each member of the household is encouraged to participate.
