Planning Commission -- October 16, 2007
After hearing concerns from members of the community, the Planning Commission discussed the process for the Village of Rivanna Master Plan at their October 16, 2007 meeting:

Village of Rivanna Master Plan Process Update --

• The Commission affirmed that the process begun in June of this year follows the guidance established by the Comprehensive Plan and that additional smaller groups should be involved in providing more input into development of the master plan.
• The Planning Commission will act as an advisory group for the master plan process, and will have regularly scheduled public discussions about the progress of the plan. All interested individuals residents are encouraged to attend those discussions.
• Additionally, work groups will be set up to focus on areas of particular interest. Topics will include interconnections, land use, Route 250, and areas outside of the current boundary, as well as any other areas of concern to the community.
• Lastly, the County will hold regular meetings with a stakeholder group that will provide suggestions about how best to meaningfully involve the community in the process and to keep the process open and accessible to everyone. The group will be composed of individuals who are willing to commit additional time and energy to the planning process beyond the major community meetings. This stakeholder group will not act as a decision-making group for issues of actual content of the master plan but will help guide the process to ensure fair and equitable community involvement.
