In this Town Talk, our publisher Mike McCool speaks with Lauren Kopishke, Planning Director, Town of Front Royal. The Town of Front Royal is updating its Comprehensive Plan, which is a visionary document that will help guide the Town’s future.  Lauren gives an overview of the Comprehensive Plan and the importance of public input to the process.

On November 9th, the Town will allow the community to contribute to the planning process. The comment session will be held on Wednesday in the lobby at Town Hall, 102 E. Main Street in Front Royal, from 4:30 to 8:300 pm.

This plan is the vision for the Town of Front Royal, a place we are proud to call home. It will serve the needs of everyone by promoting economic prosperity and encouraging high-quality development while preserving our small-town charm.


Town Talk is a series on the Royal Examiner where we will introduce you to local entrepreneurs, businesses, non-profit leaders, and political figures who influence Warren County. Topics will be varied but hopefully interesting. If you have an idea or topic or want to hear from someone in our community, let us know. Send your request to news@RoyalExaminer.com.
