The purpose of Rowe’s Open Space and Recreation Plan (OSRP) is to provide a framework for decisions dealing with land use, natural systems, and lands that contain unique ecological, recreational, historical, and scenic values. It documents current natural, recreational, and cultural resources of the town and identifies priorities for protecting, maintaining, or improving them, particularly in the face of the changes anticipated with climate change. The Seven-Year Action Plan, found in Section 9, provides direction to a myriad of local boards, commissions, and committees about how to implement the goals and objectives that were developed in part from the results of the 2022 Open Space and Recreation Planning Survey, input at the October 2023 public forum, and other recent planning efforts undertaken by the Town. The 2024 Rowe Open Space and Recreation Plan prioritizes actions that will help ensure that the Town of Rowe meets the following goals: GOAL A. Protect ecosystem integrity and ecosystem services to build climate resilience GOAL B. Enhance recreational and cultural opportunities GOAL C. Create the organizational and educational framework for achieving the goals of the open space and recreation plan
