Community Development & Planning

TOH Community Services

The primary responsibility of the Community Development and Planning Department is to work with the community to develop a common vision for its future and take actions that transform that vision into reality. In order to fulfill that responsibility the Department develops partnerships, conducts inclusive planning processes and secures local, regional, federal, state, and other resources to improve the quality of life for Hull residents.

When Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds are available the Department distributes them directly to residents through the housing rehabilitation program. The Department also conducts community infrastructure projects with CDBG funds when they are available. These projects improve access for all to Town facilities and amenities. Some projects that improve access include the A St. handicapped access beach ramp, sidewalks at C and D Streets and the Senior Center renovation.

The Department conducts a variety of other projects to enhance the conditions that support revitalization and the quality of life for all Hull residents. These include improving transportation including improved access to Nantasket Pier and repair and enhancement of the Pemberton Pier Commuter Facility.

The Department also secures funding for larger projects that help the Town achieve its goals as articulated in several Plans including the Community Development Plan, the Harbor Plan, The Open Space and Recreation Plan. the ADA Transition Plan and the Community Development Strategy. The Department will continue to work with the community to take the necessary steps to transform the community's vision into reality.
