Rockland County: River to Ridge
A Plan for the 21st Century

The plan is a culmination of a year-long planning process involving citizens, County agencies, municipal officials and community groups.  With an emphasis on preserving residential areas and open space, creating additional amenities for residents and visitors, building selectively on the strengths of its downtown areas, identifying areas for business development and integrating transportation initiatives, the Comprehensive Plan provides guidance for the County’s growth and a framework for achieving sustainable development over the next several decades.  Measures recommended by the Plan will permit the County to evolve and increase the efficiency of its roadways and infrastructure systems while protecting the character of its neighborhoods, preserving open space and increasing opportunities for the enjoyment of its valuable waterfront, its downtown cultural attractions, and its sense of community.

You can read the comprehensive plan by downloading the following files.  The plan was broken up into smaller components for easier downloading.
