  • Communities Facilities Element
    1996 PRINCETON COMMUNITY MASTER PLAN adopted - December 12, 1996, amended January 19, 2006 page 74 VII. COMMUNITY FACILITIES ELEMENT The Board acknowledges that some issues regarding school designation have been raised which require further study and may necessitate amendments to the Community Facilities Element. The Board intends to review and evaluate changes to the Community Facilities Element in early 1997. INTRODUCTION The Community Facilities Element of the Master Plan focuses on municipal, educational and cultural facilities needed by current and future residents of Princeton. The principal goal of the element is to ensure that such facilities and services continue to be available as the community grows. The areas of focus include: public infrastructure; public safety; the Princeton Public Library; public health and health facilities; public schools; parks and open space; indoor recreation; cultural facilities and public art. 1996 POLICY STATEMENT Princeton is served by a comprehensive system of municipal services which include public utilities, police and fire protection, emergency services, the public library, public health, public school system and recreational and cultural facilities. The policy of the Community Facilities Element is to: encourage the provision of convenient well-located community facilities; provide adequate municipal facilities for the efficient operation of the community; plan community facilities to serve the needs of all age groups; and, coordinate construction and installation of improvements as part of a comprehensive capital plan. Community facilities must be well planned and well designed to ensure their integration into existing neighborhoods. 1996 - 2001 GOALS I. Provide adequate municipal, educational and cultural facilities to meet the needs of Princeton residents.
