Brookline Residents Get A Chance To Shape The Town’s Future
An ambitious new community plan is opening the door for residents to help shape everything from housing to transportation to local business.
BROOKLINE, MA — Brookline residents have a chance to help decide what their town looks like for years to come. After two years of research, community conversations and planning, town officials have released a draft of Brookline's first comprehensive plan in nearly 20 years.
The proposal focuses on seven key areas, including affordable housing, thriving business districts, transportation, neighborhood improvements and climate action. Residents are encouraged to review the plan and share ideas before it moves closer to completion.
A public meeting is scheduled for Nov. 16 at Town Hall, giving neighbors another opportunity to speak up.
