The Crozet Master Plan guides the future development of the Crozet designated growth area.

Adoption and revision

The plan was adopted on December 1, 2004, as the result of a two-year process involving the community, staff and other stakeholders[citation needed]. Implementation is overseen by the Crozet Community Advisory Council.

The plan was up for reconsideration in 2009 with a final report due by July, 2010. Items under consideration include a possible expansion and population projections.

Expansion

One of the items to be discussed is a comprehensive plan amendment to bring 184 acres in Yancey Mills and owned by the Yancey family into the designated growth area, to accommodate a proposed business park[1]. At a public forum Jan 28 2010, citizens and members of the Crozet Community Advisory Council were mostly critical of the planned expansion[2].

Population projections

The opening pages of the plan describes why it anticipates a projected build-out of 12,000 people over the 20 years in which it will serve as a guide for Crozet growth. That matches the by-right build-out figure of 12,500. In 2004, the Crozet development area had a population of around 3,000. However, the land use map included population densities that could allow an ultimate build-out of 24,758 people. That would mean that every single parcel land developed at its maximum density. The most recent population estimate for Crozet is 5,336 for August 2007.
