The Town and Village of Cuba are always up to something good for the benefit of their community residents, and this year is no different. Working with the Allegany County Office of Planning, at the beginning of 2020 Cuba created a Comprehensive Plan Committee to develop a Plan that will be used to benefit the residents of the community. As a result of that effort, the draft plan is currently being offered for public review and comment.
The draft is available online by visiting the following link: https://www.alleganyco.com/
Important things to note regarding the plan are as follows – this is a working draft, minor edits are expected moving forward, as well as some formatting and other finishing work. Appendices will be added to the online link, as they are finished. Those items are not expected to change in any way; however, they might change in their listed order and are currently referenced as “Appendix X” for every item.
While the Village of Cuba has worked with consultants in the past to produce economic development plans, the Town of Cuba was not previously involved. This time, the municipalities are working together to develop a plan that provided the framework to help reach desired growth and development within both communities. Barring any major delays, it is expected the plan will be adopted by March of 2021.
All requests for draft hard copies, as well as questions or comments should be directed to Michelle Denhoff, Assistant Director of Economic Development and Planning for Allegany County at denhoffmm@alleganyco.com. Please be sure to title your subject as “Cuba Comprehensive Plan Public Comment”. Comments are requested by no later than January 15, 2021.
