This document is the 2022 Plan of Conservation and Development for Kent, Connecticut. This update of the 2012 POCD was prepared by the Planning and Zoning Commission with input from Kent residents
and from other local boards and commissions.
Based on this input, this Plan of Conservation and Development promulgates a vision for the future of Kent and strategies that will help attain that vision with regard to:
- Helping maintain and improve the community for future generations (sustainability);
- Protecting things important to the community (resources and assets),
- Guiding uses and activities in ways that will provide things the community wants or needs (places and uses), and
- Providing for things which will enhance the overall health and well-being of the community and the quality of life of its residents (infrastructure).
As part of the overall vision, it is important to state that Kent aspires to be a diverse and equitable community where everyone has opportunities to participate, be recognized and valued, and to continue
the pursuit of happiness, regardless of race, gender, age, sexual identity, or other characteristic
