Proposed Projects
The Morris Local Planning Committee (LPC) is conducting an Open Call for Project Proposals to identify potential projects for inclusion in the Morris’ Strategic Investment Plan (SIP). The goal is to identify transformative or catalytic projects that can enhance economic development, improve walkability, and strengthen the local community.
All project sponsors must submit a project form to be considered by the LPC for inclusion in the list of recommended projects.
Forms may be completed online, downloaded as a fillable PDF, or printed and completed as a hard copy. Electronic or typed submissions are preferred for accuracy. Hard copy written applications must be clearly legible and include all required attachments and high-resolution images. Only one version of the form needs to be submitted.
Submit your completed application (and any supplemental materials) electronically, by mail, or in person. All electronic, mailed, and in person applications are due by 6pm on September 30th, 2026. In-person and mailed applications must be received at the Morris Townhouse or dropped in the Village drop box by 6pm on September 30th, 2026.
