The 2008 Evaluation of the County's Rural Areas
Board of Supervisors - APPROVED
April 22, 2009 @ 7:15PM
Frederick County Board Room
107 N. Kent Street
Winchester, VA
During the Summer of 2008, the Board of Supervisors created the Rural Areas Subcommittee. This subcommittee was charged with the evaluation of the County's rural areas, identification of issues that may impact the rural character as well as County fiscal responsibilities, identification of all potential resolutions to overcome impacts, and forwarding of recommendations designed to preserve the community's rural character into the future. Much effort is being spent to better understand our past and present growth trends, and establish a framework to guide us into the future.
A series of informative documents are available (see links below) for the community to understand the charge of the Rural Areas Subcommittee, as well as their progress. We would encourage you to forward your thoughts for incorporation into the effort, as well as register your e-mail address to receive occasional program updates.
The Rural Areas Subcommittee will be hosting a community meeting at which findings to date will be presented, and comments and suggestive solutions sought.
The Community will continue to be engaged throughout this planning effort, in an effort to foster a high level of citizen participation. Citizen participation is enormously valuable to the overall study effort. It is the Subcommittee's intent to incorporate the comments and issues offered by the public into the final recommendation of the Rural Areas Subcommittee, which will be forward to the Board of Supervisors for their consideration.
