The Planning Commission is a public advisory board and its purpose is to review and advise the Selectboard on public and private activities involving the physical, social, and economic development of the town and to review and make a comprehensive long-range plan for the development of the town (view the Town Plans). The Commission also reviews and advises the Selectboard on the creation and revision of town bylaws (view the Zoning By-Laws).

Latest Updates from the GPC
Municipal Planning Grant:
In May 2025 the GPC was awarded a grant to hire professional planning consultants to explore Land Use and Housing with our Greensboro community members. The GPC and the Select Board approved the selection of the SE Group. The GPC will use this project to guide the writing of the Land Use and Housing chapters of the next Town Plan. All materials have been placed in a public folder: MPG Folder
In August 2025 the community enjoyed the Housing Workshop offered by the SE Group in this planning process. Follow up materials, including a video of the presentation, can be found in the MPG Folder or viewed below.
2024 Town Survey and Community Conversations:
- The preliminary Survey Highlights can be found here.
- The detailed Survey Data results can be found below here.
- The feedback from the two Community Conversations can be found here.
What your GPC is working on now:
- Considering the the workshop feedback and the Municipal Planning Grant Consultants’ analysis to support inquiry into our local land use policies for the next Town Plan.
- Evaluating current Flood Bylaws and updating them to meet new FEMA standards so all Greensboro community members can continue to be eligible for flood insurance access via NFIP, and the Town can apply for FEMA grants, if necessary.
- Planning for a GPC Public Hearing around proposed amended Flood and SPD Articles and other proposed miscellaneous Bylaw amendments.
- Planning for a September Community Conversation about the pros and cons of town zoning regulations.
Proposed bylaw changes:
The GPC hopes to hold a public hearing about proposed amendments to the Flood bylaws, the Shoreland Protection District bylaws and sundry miscellaneous items in 2025. Greensboro community members are encouraged to stay tuned for future scheduled Public Hearings. Link to SPD bylaw materials here.
