Village of Holly Master Plan Community Survey

 

The Village of Holly’s Council and Planning Commission are in the process of creating a Master Plan with the help of ROWE Professional Services Company. A Master Plan is an assessment of the past, present of a community, and a projection of its future land use, infrastructure, and other community characteristics. Some of the information included in the Master Plan are profiles on neighboring municipalities, demographic information, land uses, natural features, goals and objectives for the community, and much more.

This Master Plan document will help guide the Village of Holly into the future through a collection of different public outreach strategies including a Visioning Session, Community Survey, and Open House. Please stay tuned, check often, and pass along opportunities to share your thoughts and help shape your community.

Please help us by taking this quick survey:
