Comprehensive Plan
Comprehensive planning is a process that determines community goals and aspirations in terms of community development. The outcome of comprehensive planning is the Comprehensive Plan itself which sets forth the Town’s policies in the areas of land use and community development, natural resources, transportation, utilities, recreation, and housing. Consistent With Maryland Law, Every 10 Years the Town Updates It Comprehensive Plan. Emmitsburg is currently working on the 2025 Update. Comprehensive plans are future oriented, and the new plan will guide the town through the year 2040. For many years, Emmitsburg’s comprehensive planning has striven for a walk-able community, prosperous economic development, an active, vibrant village center, and environmental sustainability.
