In July 2019, the Roanoke County Board of Supervisors adopted the 419 Town Center Plan. Development of new design guidelines will provide further guidance on the design of both public and private investments and improvements in the study area. The design guidelines will help shape the built environment, meet community expectations, provide a vibrant public realm, and maintain a consistent character and high quality of design and aesthetic.
We held a 419 Town Center Design Guidelines Open House Meeting on Thursday, March 10, 2022atSouth County Library for citizens to review and provide comments on the proposed design guidelines, including: a framework plan, character districts, regional multi-modal connections, and street design.
