What is a Plan of Conservation and Development?

A Plan of Conservation and Development (POCD, the “Plan”) is an advisory document that serves as a municipality’s official action plan for its future land use, development, and conservation goals. The plan outlines a town’s physical, social, economic and governmental conditions and trends to formulate a community’s vision for its future. POCDs contain information on a municipality’s housing supply, recreation, transportation, social services and public utilities which assist in identifying community needs pertaining to these areas. The plan is not a mandate but instead aids as a comprehensive set of policies, goals, and implementation strategies that guide the physical and economic development of a municipality. The execution of the PoCD is carried out by the town’s staff, boards and commissions, community groups, and private development.
