Master Plan Community Engagement
At a glance
- What: how the consultants and the Master Plan Steering Committee gather public input for the 2026 master plan update: staff interviews, a board and committee survey, a monthly web question, the Spirit of Shrewsbury mapping table, and a community forum.
- Where it stands: forum set for Thursday, November 12, 2026 as an open house (7 to 8:30 p.m.) after a short business meeting; location still being chosen. Parent topic: Master Plan.
- Next: members to answer the October question, promote the forum and suggest places for outreach (a December 5 event was floated).
