Comprehensive Plan
So, what is a Comprehensive Plan?
New York laws define a comprehensive plan  as the "materials, written and/or graphic, including but not limited to maps, charts, studies, resolutions, reports and other descriptive material that identify the goals, objectives, principles, guidelines, policies, standards, devices and instruments for the immediate and long range protection, enhancement, growth and development of the [locality]."

The comprehensive plan creates a blueprint for the future development and preservation of a community.  Often referred to as the "master plan," it is the essential foundation upon which communities are built.  A good comprehensive plan guides not only the physical and economic development of the municipality, but also accommodates social, environmental and regional concerns.

The basic purpose of preparing a Comprehensive plan for the Town of Canadice is to provide a framework for the Town Board and operating staff to make decisions and implement actions in a consistent and coordinated fashion.  The recommendations made in it are strategic in nature, based upon the best information available to the Town Planning Board at the time of preparation and adoption. 

The initial Comprehensive Plan was adopted in 1996 then revised and re-adopted in 1999 and 2015.
