Town of Fitzwilliam Master Plan

Implementation Survey

As part of the process of updating the Town of Fitzwilliam’s Master Plan, the Master Plan Steering Committee is seeking your opinion. Please take a few minutes to share your views by completing this confidential survey. Select the option that best represents your response. If you are not sure, or if a question does not apply to you, select the “DK/NA” response. Your input is critical to this process and will help shape the future for Fitzwilliam.

The results of this survey will help our elected and volunteer community leaders develop and assign priorities to the recommendations in the Master Plan. Responses collected to date were tabulated and preliminary results were presented to the Town at a public forum on March 26th.

Please return your completed survey on or before June 15, 2022 so that your opinions can be included in the compiled results.

Should you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to email fitzlanduse@fitzwilliam-nh.gov or contact Lori Nolan at 603-585-9119. Thank you in advance for your assistance and cooperation. We truly value your opinion.

Sincerely, The Fitzwilliam Master Plan Steering Committee
