Master Plan Update: Read the Draft Plan and Attend the Public Hearing

Crozet Master Plan Update

Wednesday, October 6th, 2021

Upcoming Board of Supervisors Public Hearing -- Read the Plan, Attend the Public Hearing, and Share Your Feedback

Since September 2019, Albemarle County has been exploring, alongside the Crozet community, how to best reflect the community's vision for the future of Crozet in the latest update to the Crozet Master Plan. The Crozet Master Plan includes five chapters: Introduction, Transportation, Land Use, Conservation, and Implementation.

Over the summer, community members shared feedback on earlier drafts of the Master Plan through an online questionnaire, at virtual Crozet Community Advisory Committee meetings, and in-person at community pop-ups. A public hearing with the Albemarle County Planning Commission was held last month.

The latest draft Master Plan incorporates comments and feedback shared over the summer. The current draft will be reviewed by the Board of Supervisors at a public hearing on Wednesday, October 20, 2021 at 6 pm.

What Is a Master Plan?

A Master Plan is a collaboratively developed document that describes a community’s vision for future development, using text, maps, and diagrams. In Albemarle County, Master Plans are used to guide future public and private development and to coordinate and prepare more detailed plans.

Master Plan Update Process

The public participation process for the Crozet Master Plan includes four phases:

Phase 1 focused on updating the community's vision and guiding principles that lay the foundation for the Master Plan document.
Phase 2 involved Focus Area Input and Design Strategies. During this phase, staff worked with the community to identify specific recommendations and associated updates to maps on the topics of Character/Land Use, Connectivity/ Transportation, Conservation/ Parks & Green Systems, and Implementation.
Phase 3 consisted of a period of recommendations drafting and refinement.
Phase 4 (current phase) will include drafting each chapter and taking the Final Master Plan Draft through public comment, public hearings, and approval processes.
