Conservation Plan
Description:
The Francestown Conservation Plan calls for safeguarding the towns natural resources in order to sustain the many benefits they provide. It further calls for the protection of the most sensitive natural areas, particularly those making up the headwaters of the towns various streams, important wildlife habitat, large forested areas, agricultural lands, and areas that contribute to the town’s rural character. The plan also calls for updating the town land use plan so that future growth is focused in places that are most appropriate to accommodate that growth.
