There is leftover money from some FEMA projects at Bow Creek, The City has gotten permission to use that money for these studies.
The City is concetrating their Community Revitalization Guideline (CRG) "study" in a few areas that will serve as the "test" for the rest of the City.
They have a pretty aggressive timeline and have already started. The City plans to have their draft documents done by April 2022 and deliver a final report to City Council in June 2022.
Below is a link to their slide show. https://www.vbgov.com/government/departments/planning/2016ComprehensivePlan/Pages/Community-Revitalization-Guidelines.aspx.
Make your voice heard so that Citizens can send a message about what "good" development looks like and what "bad" development looks like!

We need your support so that we can meet these challenges head-on.
