Town of Carefree encourages community participation

Deadlines for community input fast approaching
 
The Town of Carefree is excited to announce its ongoing General Plan update, a significant planning document that will chart the town’s vision and management for the next 10-20 years. The General Plan covers crucial topics such as land use, circulation, water resources, open space, and more, all of which play a vital role in shaping our community’s future.

To comply with State Law, the General Plan must undergo review by the Town Council and be ratified by the voters of Carefree.
