EASTON, MARYLAND — Easton has posted a red-lined draft of its Comprehensive Plan dated Nov. 1, 2026, and the town's project page says the public hearing on the draft has been closed. The page's timeline marks the Town Council's public hearing step complete and lists Town Council adoption as the active step. It posts no adoption date.
The red-lined PDF tracks all the revisions made to the version the Planning Commission approved at its Feb. 19, 2026, meeting, according to the project page. It does not say in plain text what the revisions are, so a reader has to open the document to find them. The two summary-of-changes files posted beside it compare the 2010 plan with the 2025 draft, not the November revisions.
For residents following the growth questions, the plan's table of contents shows where to look. Chapter 11, "Municipal Growth," has sections titled "Growth Rate Discussion" and "Future Growth Areas and Annexation." Chapter 12 is "Implementation," and the plan ends with a chapter of appendices.
The Town Council is the body that adopts the plan, and the project page does not say when it will vote. Residents of Wards 2 and 4 can ask Council Members Robert Rankin and Rev. Elmer Neal Davis Jr. about it at the next joint Town Hall Discussion on Monday, Nov. 9, from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Easton Firehouse, 315 Leonard Rieck Drive.
