Regional Policy Plan Update Public Meeting
The Cape Cod Commission has launched its review of the 2018 Regional Policy Plan (RPP), a document that provides regional planning policies and objectives to guide development and protect the region’s resources.
The Regional Policy Plan serves as a blueprint for Cape Cod's future, outlining strategies to direct growth to appropriate locations, protect natural resources, and promote economic resilience. Since the first edition in 1991, the RPP has undergone several updates, including major revisions in 2009 and 2018. The current review offers a chance to assess the impact of the significant changes in the region over the last five years, and ensure the Cape’s unique challenges—housing, climate change, infrastructure, water quality and economic sustainability, among others—are effectively addressed and reflected in regional policies and goals.
