The Chicopee Department of Planning and Development was established "...to administer governmental and municipal functions and responsibilities in the field of city planning; to coordinate efforts directed toward the future development of the city; to assure its continued improvement, consistent with its physical, social and economic conditions and resources..." (from Chicopee City Code Chapter 75).
Departmental responsibilities include administrative work for the Planning Board, Board of Appeals, Conservation Commission, Historical Commission, Church Street Historic District Commission, and the Springfield Street Historic District Commission. The Department also acts as adviser to the Mayor, City Council, municipal departments and all municipal boards and commissions on planning related matters.
Our Volunteers
