Lakes Region Planning Commission

Planning Regionally - Growing Locally

LRPC is in the process of a comprehensive website redesign. We are making steady progress, with roughly two‑thirds of the work now complete, and we expect the transition to be finished in the next couple of months. As we continue migrating content, some links may still be missing or may direct you to incorrect pages. If you encounter any broken links or are unable to find the information you need, please contact us at execadmin@lakesrpc.nh.gov so we can assist you and address the issue. We sincerely appreciate your patience as we complete this process.

IMPORTANT UPDATE! The Lakes Region Master Plan chapter surveys are rolling out now.
Tell us what is important to YOU. Visit our SURVEY page to participate.

ANNOUNCEMENTS & NEWS

Lakes Region Master Plan Update 2026
LRPC is updating the 2015 Regional Master Plan (formerly The Lakes Region Plan). This strategic guide reflects the values, priorities, needs, and goals of residents, businesses, and communities across the region. The 2026 update will include focused chapter revisions on Transportation, Housing, Economic Development, and Natural Resources. Four surveys will be released throughout the month of March to gather public input on these topics. The full project will run through the end of 2026.

OUT NOW! Transportation & Housing Surveys.
We are actively seeking public input on the Transportation and Housing portions of the Lakes Region Master Plan update and encourage everyone to participate.

Please visit our Regional Planning page for more information, and check our Survey page to access each survey as it becomes available. Your voice matters and your participation is deeply appreciated!
