Albemarle County's Pantops Master Plan
The Pantops master plan is currently in draft form, and is moving through the county approval process. In September of 2007, the Board of Supervisors held a Public Hearing to listen to public input on the draft Pantops Master Plan, where they requested additional information from County staff so they could further evaluate several issues raised in the Public Hearings.
Like all Albemarle County master planning efforts, the Draft Pantops Master Plan incorporates the principles of the Neighborhood Model and provides a set of Guiding Principles to distinguish Pantops from other development areas of the County. It provides a framework for transportation, land use, design guidelines, and public infrastructure. Public participation has been critical to the development of the draft plan, with residents, property owners, and other stakeholders working with county staff and consultants to develop the five guiding principles which capture what is most important for a high quality of life in Pantops. These principles include respect for natural, historical, and scenic assets, especially the Rivanna River system, new development that fits with existing character, housing choices, improving pedestrian systems, addressing transportation issues, and providing adequate community facilities and services.
