Guiding Theory

Over the last several years we have been actively reaching out to our residents to proactively plan the future of the Town of Shady Shores.  During that time, the Town has adopted exciting new policies and plans to guide future community, economic, and infrastructure development. The Town is in the beginning phase of creating a strategic plan for the next 5 years.

 Municipal Code and Ordinances:

Reasonable local laws prescribing general, uniform, and permanent rules of conduct.  Ordinances are necessary and proper to maintain the good government, peace, and order of the Town. Ordinances ensure the safety of our community.
