Town seeks citizen input on Comp Plan revisions on future developmental vision inside town limits
On Tuesday, May 17, Front Royal Town Manager Steven Hicks issued a brief statement alerting town citizens to opportunities to give town staff, and in turn its elected officials who will give final approval to it, their perspective on revisions to the Town’s Comprehensive Plan. Below is Hicks release detailing those opportunities this coming Friday and Saturday.
The first floor of Town Hall will be open for citizen input on a vision for the town’s future on Saturday, from 10 AM to noon and 2 PM to 4 PM. On Friday the location will be the County Public Safety Building (Sheriff and F&R Offices) across from Skyline HS, from noon to 2 PM.
The Town will be hosting Public Input on the rewrite of the Town’s Comprehensive Plan on Friday the 20th, and Saturday the 21st.
