Comprehensive Plan Process
The Comprehensive Plan Committee was appointed by the Town Board on May 7, 2008 to update the 2000 Comprehensive Plan now in effect. A Comprehensive Plan is the legal foundation for all land use decisions and guidelines for development. The Town of Penfield strives to update this important planning document approximately every 10 years. The committee was chaired by County Legislator Debbie Drawe and assisted by John Steinmetz of Steinmetz Planning Group and Matt Ingalls of Ingalls Planning and Design as consultants.
This update Committee consisted of 20 individuals who volunteered their time to take on this important process. The Town Board worked to put together a Committee consisting of a broad cross-section of residents living within Penfield. In this consultant-led, staff-assisted process, the Committee spent 23 months developing the Draft 2010 Comprehensive Plan to provide to the Town Board for their consideration.
Throughout this process there have been many opportunities for public input such as community forums, youth workshops, land use workshops, focus group meetings, and public hearings. If you would like to be notified of updates to this webpage, please send an e-mail to planning@penfield.org with "add to Comp Plan Distribution List" in the subject line. In an effort to keep all interested parties informed, we will gladly copy you in on e-mail notifications regarding the Comprehensive Plan.
