2030 Master Plan update
Preparations are underway for Southborough's 2030 Master Plan update, with the Master Plan Implementation Committee recommending that the Planning Board take ownership of the process and establish a dedicated steering committee in 2027. The committee advocates a hybrid model pairing town volunteers with a professional consultant, with costs estimated between $40,000 and $100,000 to be funded through state technical assistance grants or a Town Meeting warrant article. The Planning Board is reviewing the proposed framework and has scheduled a joint discussion with the committee on October 19, 2026 to determine the path forward.
