BACKGROUND
In the 1990s, the Community Land & Water Coalition’s regional planning agencies launched “Vision 2020: A Partnership for Southeastern Massachusetts" to address development in the region that “alarmed our citizens.” Today, inappropriately sited projects such as the NOTOS rezoning plan for East Wareham and land-based solar projects clearing pristine Pine Barren forests threaten our land and water.
