Community Meeting
July 15, 2010
7:00PM
Fort Lewis Baptist Church Fellowship Hall

The Glenvar Community Plan was initiated to study development and redevelopment issues along West Main Street, in anticipation of the widening of West Main Street and the proposed intermodal facility in Montgomery County. The Glenvar Community Plan will also study community facility needs, environmental resources/constraints, as well as outdoor recreation resources with adoption anticipated in 2010.

Study Area

The Glenvar Planning Area stretches west to east from the Montgomery County border to the City of Salem and north to south from Fort Lewis Mountain to Poor Mountain. The Planning Area measures 31,744 acres in size and encompasses all or portions of 5,081 parcels. Please click here to see a map of the study area.

Community Participation

The Glenvar Community Plan will engage citizens through several mediums including Community Meetings(s), Surveys, Stakeholder Interviews and through Traditional and Social media outlets. 

Community Meetings

The second set of Glenvar Community Meetings will be held on June 29 and July 15 at 7:00 PM in the Fort Lewis Baptist Church Fellowship Hall. Each meeting will begin with a short presentation and then break into groups to participate in a facilitated visioning exercise.

Each meeting will be focused on a particular area of the Glenvar Community:
June 29 – West Main Street Corridor
July 15 – Dixie Caverns Vicinity

Citizens are encouraged to join us for both, but participation is not limited to the meetings. There will be opportunities to comment on both areas online and through materials that will be handed out at each meeting and will be available at county facilities.
