Town Mapping

The ACOS mapping program was developed to:
a) Inventory public and private lands set aside for active and passive recreation,
b) Analyze the interrelatedness of natural corridors and potential trail networks,
c) Identify large private parcels at risk for development,
d) Identify and rank specific parcels that the town should seek to purchase or otherwise preserve.

A sampling of the maps are available by clicking the links below.
