Agriculture and Farmland Protection Plan - Town of Liberty

Implementation Steps
Town of Liberty
Agriculture and Farmland Protection Plan
This section outlines an action plan to implement the Agriculture and
Farmland Protection Plan’s recommended strategies. Leadership from the
Town Board is critical to put this plan into action. Although the Town Board
has the ultimate responsibility in implementing this plan, they will need
assistance from various boards, agencies, and organizations for specific
strategies recommended in the plan.
This plan calls for a variety of policy decisions, program initiation, regulatory
changes, coordination with regional organizations and agencies, and
securing funding. The following schedule is a compilation of all the actions
identified in this Plan. The action table does not detail each strategy
contained in the Plan. Instead, it is a compilation of the actions suggested
and presents a prioritization of major categories of work to be accomplished
in Liberty. This Action Plan should not be a substitute for the details
contained in the rest of the Plan.
The table below provides a checklist of strategies and identifies the level of
priority each holds as well as staff, agencies and organizations who would be
responsible for implementing that action, and the specific section in this plan
where details about that action can be found.
