Western Planning Area (CPAM 2023-01)

Since April of 2023, the Round Hill Planning Commission studied the 17 parcels that were brought into Town Limits in January of 2023 to create a Small Area Plan. This area plan, referred to as the Western Area Plan, when adopted by the Town Council will be added to the 2017 Round Hill Comprehensive Plan (as an amendment).

The properties included in the Western Planning Area are shown in chart below:

The Western Planning Area describes the unique characteristics, opportunities, and challenges of the area, while considering its current state and future development potential. This amendment includes land use policies to guide the Town Council and Planning Commission when reviewing future projects and development decisions affecting the area.

The Plan focuses on the following policies, with associated goals and strategies:

1. Land Use: Policies on how the land in the area should be used for various purposes. This includes policies to encourage balanced and sustainable land use patterns in the newly incorporated area.
2. Housing: Policies that focus on the community's housing needs, affordability, and diversity, ensuring that there is adequate housing for all residents.
3. Transportation: Policies to promote potential road improvements and pedestrian paths and to support efficient and accessible movement of people and goods within the Western BLA Area.
4. Environment and Natural Resources: Policies for protecting and preserving environmentally sensitive areas, promoting sustainable development practices, and managing resources responsibly.

Please note that a Comprehensive Plan Amendment will not rezone any property. The purpose of this amendment is to adopt policies, goals and strategies that will guide future land use decisions and advise the Town Council on future community projects.

There will be a Joint Public Hearing with the Town Council and Planning Commission on April 3, 2024 at 7:30 PM at the Round Hill Town Office located at 23 Main Street, Round Hill, VA.
