Montgomery County, PA

NORRISTOWN, PA — The Montgomery County Planning Commission is inviting residents to take part in one of two public forums to make comments on the draft "Housing Plan" component of the county’s new 2025 comprehensive plan.
The session will consist of a presentation on the "Housing Plan" followed by a question and answer period.
The "Housing Plan" will guide the county’s residential planning and development to the year 2025 and expands upon the ideas and goals outlined in the "Vision Plan," the overall guide to the new county comprehensive plan.
It will outline existing conditions, government policies and ideas for both housing construction and rehabilitation that will help meet future housing demand and maintain Montgomery County as a quality place to live.  Since housing issues cross municipal and county boundaries, it will be crucial for residents, local government officials and other professionals to work together to improve the places we call home. The public’s opinions on local housing concerns will help guide the final edition of the plan.
The "Housing Plan" is one of many detailed plans that will be included in the new 2025 comprehensive plan. The 2025 plan will replace the county’s existing plan, which was adopted in 1979. The Montgomery County Planning Commission completed a major element of the plan in 2002 when it produced the "Vision Plan," following public meetings and a local survey. It is the guiding document for the comprehensive plan update and pulls together all the various interrelated plan elements..
