Town hold first public input on Comprehensive Plan re-write, second on Saturday, May 21st
The Town hosted its first public input session on the rewrite of the Town’s Comprehensive Plan on Friday, May 20, and will hold the second one on Saturday, May 21. The location will be at the Town Hall, in the 1st-floor lobby at 102 E. Main Street in Front Royal. This session will be from 10:00 am to noon and again from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm.
The existing Comprehensive Plan controls development and the Vision of the Town and is 25 years old, so your input is greatly needed to manage development and create a sustainable community.

If you have questions, please contact Lauren Kopishke, Town’s Planning Director, via Email.
