Summary


Our hope is that the towns chosen by our study can be used as models of effective planning in other towns, both in the state of Massachusetts and the nation. The five towns chosen by our research team exhibit planning practices that can be used as models in other towns experiencing similar situations. This study serves as both exploration into what makes for effective planning practices and a model for others to follow.

The five towns chosen by our research team exhibit planning practices that are worthy of emulation. Visit these towns and see for yourself why we feel these towns are truly exemplary.
