The Town of Lansing started this process in in August of 2012 when the Town Board appointed a committee of community citizens, planning board members and elected officials to begin the process of updating the 2006 Town of Lansing Comprehensive Plan. Over the next several years, the committee continued to work on several topics and completed their recommended in August of 2016. The Town Board then asked the Planning Board to review and edit the plan which was completed in December of 2017. The Town Board then reviewed the Planning Board recommended Comprehensive Plan and asked for additional public comment.

Overall, over this nearly 6 year period, there have been over 65 people that have directly contributed to the compilation of the final document as a member of the Comprehensive Plan Committee, The Town of Lansing Planning Board Member, professional consultants, Town staff members and Lansing Town Board Members. In addition, there have been several members of the community that also offered comments and recommendations throughout the process towards the final product that was formally adopted by the Town Board on May, 2, 2018.

We wish to thank everyone that contributed towards this product, making this a better Comprehensive Plan and represent all the diverse interests of the town. Special Thanks to Joseph Sheppard for taking copious notes and working with so many individuals and editing the document. Everyone has invested much energy into specific topics and discuss of the future path of the Town of Lansing.
