Brookfield Schedules Second Public Workshop For 2025 Development Plan

BROOKFIELD, CT — The Town of Brookfield will hold its second public workshop on April 22 as part of the ongoing update to its Plan of Conservation and Development (POCD), a state-mandated document that guides land use, zoning, infrastructure, and growth over a ten-year period.

The session is scheduled from 7 to 9 p.m. in the Brookfield High School cafeteria. Residents are invited to review and provide input on draft chapters that outline proposed goals, strategies, and recommendations in areas such as transportation, housing, economic development, community facilities, and natural resources.

The updated POCD aims to reflect current conditions and establish a strategic framework for the town’s future. It is intended to support decision-making by elected officials, planning boards, and town staff.

Draft chapters of the plan are available online here, where community members can also view results from recent public surveys.

The town last adopted its POCD in 2015 and amended it in 2016. Connecticut law requires municipalities to update the plan every decade.
