About land use planning
Land use planning helps our community set development goals while keeping social, economic, and environmental factors in mind. It also balances the interests of individual property owners with the wider interests of the whole community. Land use planning helps the Township manage land and resources and guide decisions such as:
- Residential, commercial and industrial development
- Recreational and educational facilities
- Infrastructure and other essential services
