Updating the urban planning program – protection of natural areas

As there are several projects and matters to be planned for Hudson’s future, the Town will also continue the work began by councils of the past. Going back to 2017, the Town of Hudson adopted a first conservation plan that was not integrated into the planning tools. A complete conservation plan that covers the entire extent of the municipality and not just the urban perimeter, and that does not exclude areas that had then been slated for development, is the first building block in revising Hudson’s Planning Program. Since 2017, the Town has gathered further science-based data that is presented in the 2020 Eco2urb report and defines the areas of interest in tiers numbered 1 through 5. This report provides valuable data for the conservation plan and is available below.
