Chesterfield County meeting on the proposed Comprehensive Plan for the Midlothian District was held Thursday evening, January 13, 2011 at Midlothian High School.
Read Midlothian Exchange's report on the meeting here.
In 2011, Chesterfield County is scheduled to adopt the first major change to its Comprehensive Plan in some 20 years.

 The Midlothian Area Plan needs to be revised and updated.  The new plan holds the potential to have a major impact on the long-standing development standards in and around the Village of Midlothian.

What process will be used, exactly, to change and update the Midlothian Area Plan (which requires the streetlights and sidewalks, for example) has become one of the major issues those developing the new comprehensive plan will decide–that includes the Planning Department of the county, the Planning Commission and, ultimately, the Board of Supervisors.

The VMVC Land-use and Development Committee will be providing updates on the process via the Midlothian Communications Network. Sign up at the right, checking "Zoning & land-use" under interests, to receive the free email newsletters.
