What’s Happening

In 2024, the Town of Stowe is reaching out far and wide to gather community ideas and stories and shape our next town plan. We want to hear from everyone who has something to say – residents and visitors, youth and older adults, business owners and workers, longtime leaders and new residents.

We’ll be launching more activities soon to gather input, discuss big issues, and shape Stowe’s future. Stay tuned and sign up for news!

  • Summer: Quick input cards and activities around town; community conversations and survey
  • Fall: Community events and conversations to explore big topics (housing, environment, affordability, etc.)
  • Winter-Spring: Drafting Stowe’s next town plan and incorporating input

About Stowe 2050

Stowe 2050 is a community planning project led by the Town of Stowe and Stowe Planning Commission. We’re hear to reach out, listen, and learn.

Vermont towns must update their Town Plans every eight years, and Stowe will approve its next one in 2026. Rather than just updating the current plan, we want to think big: what do we want Stowe to be in 2050, and what will it take to get there? We want to hear from everyone in the community and get your ideas on our next town priorities.
