The Town of Islip has begun to create a new town comprehensive plan, Supervisor Angie Carpenter said in her annual State of the Town address on Wednesday. The plan will outline future policy goals in "critical areas like housing, the environment, and job creation," Carpenter said during her address. The last comprehensive plan for the town was adopted in 1977. "Our town has expanded. So I've made it our duty to revisit the visions of yesterday — and looking through the broader lens of equity and resilience — get to work to foster smart and sustainable development that will set the stage for growth for decades to come," Carpenter said.
