  • Town of Lewiston Comp Plan Update FINAL
    Town of Lewiston Comprehensive Plan Update 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background A Comprehensive Plan is designed to provide a community with guidelines to use in assessing current and future policy decisions. Under New York State Town law, a Comprehensive Plan, while not required, is recommended as the basis for making land use and zoning decisions. An adopted Comprehensive Plan provides a community with a rational foundation for decision- making. It helps provide clear direction for residents, developers and other stakeholders. An effective Comprehensive Plan provides a municipality with powerful tools to shape their future and enhance the quality of life for Town residents. The Town of Lewiston’s existing Comprehensive Plan was adopted in 2000. This 2011 Comprehensive Plan Update is intended to serve as a companion document to the 2000 Plan. It reconfirms and updates that document to ensure its continued relevancy for the Town. It reaffirms the community’s commitment to a shared future vision. The Update also provides the Town with additional tools and new perspectives that reflect more accurately the current state of the Town. It is based on more current planning theories and concepts and the recommendations reflect current realities and opportunities. This document, as noted above, is a companion document to the 2000 Comprehensive Plan. It does not recreate the exhaustive inventory of the Town contained within that document. Instead, it focuses on the aspects of the Town that have changed, or where a new approach is indicated. Chapter 2 reframes and restates the vision for the Town. Chapter 3 highlights the aspects of the Town where change has occurred and updates relevant information in the Town’s “Environmental Setting,” which depicts existing conditions in the Town.
