 Perry and Pembroke Comprehensive Plan Update 
In an effort improve regional coordination and efficient delivery of local government services, the Towns of Perry and Pembroke worked together to jointly update their respective Comprehensive Plans. Although many chapters of the communities' Comprehensive Plan Update are shared, each community will have its own Comprehensive Plan (posted below), each Comprehensive Plan was submitted to the State Planning Office for review under the Growth Management Act (submission and state review documents posted below), and each community will hold its own public hearing and its own vote for local adoption (contact the town offices for the dates for each public hearing and local vote: Perry 853-4161; Pembroke 726-4047). 

The Perry and Pembroke Comprehensive Plan Updates were submitted to the State Planning Office for review in February of 2010 and found consistent with the Comprehensive Planning and Land Use Regulation Act (the "Growth Management Act") on May 5, 2010. The following documents were submitted and received by each town as part of that review process:
