  • N.Montour Comp Planv2
    EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The eleven chapters of this comprehensive plan provide a written and graphic description and analysis of current conditions, resources, and capabilities throughout Anthony, Derry, Liberty, Limestone and West Hemlock Townships in Montour County. In addition, the Plan presents future growth policies, recommendations and strategies to address identified concerns and manage the municipalities’ assets for the future. The document’s intent is to provide for future growth in the Planning Area in such a way that will preserve the Area’s rural, agricultural character and quality of life. The Northern Montour Regional Planning Commission, at the direction of the Boards of Supervisors of Anthony, Derry, Liberty, Limestone and West Hemlock Townships, was assigned the primary responsibility for development of the Plan. In June of 1992 a Professional Planning Consultant (Landplan, Inc.) was selected to assist the Planning Commission with the project. Work began in August of that year and has culminated with the development of this document. During the process, a Public Opinion Survey was distributed to all property owners residing in the five Study Area municipalities to solicit their input on various aspects of the Plan. The various elements of the Plan are interrelated from beginning to end. The background chapters (1-9) present and evaluate available resources and land use activities in the Planning Area; the goals (Chapter 10) set forth the municipalities’ desires regarding the type, location, and intensity of future development of the Area; the objective statements (following each goal in Chapter 10) describe the intent or purpose of each goal; and the recommendations (also in Chapter 10) illustrate specific ways in which the goals may be achieved.

Alternate Vacant, U.S. Commissioner Vacant, U.S. Alternate The Susquehanna River Basin Commission was created as an independent agency by a federal-interstate compact* among the states of Maryland, New York, Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and the federal government. In creating the Commission, the Congress and state legislatures formally recognized the water resources of the Susquehanna River Basin as a regional asset vested with local, state, and national interests for which all the parties share responsibility. As the single federal-interstate water resources agency with basinwide authority, the Commission's goal is to effect coordinated planning, conservation, management, utilization, development and control of basin water resources among the government and private sectors.
