The Ghent Comprehensive Plan Review Committee (“CPRC”) has been working over the last 18 months to update the Town Comprehensive Plan, during which time it has held several events to elicit input from the public. Over the next 8 weeks, it will conduct the final three public outreach events, before the Plan is presented to the Town Board. Each event is an opportunity for Ghent residents to review the draft plan, ask questions and provide comments to the CPRC.
