A roundup of last night’s CCA meeting is coming, but I wanted to briefly note a couple of things:1) The attendance by the County was fantastic - Lee Caitlin, Rebecca Ragsdale, Tom Foley and Susan Stimart.  David Wyant was absent.  Thank you.2) About 35 -40 residents turned out - a relatively large number for a summer meeting.3) The Crozet Library project may have some interesting developments coming down the pike.  With a bit more investigation, I will write more.4) In discussing the perceived poor implementation of the Western Connector and the lack of bike lanes, it was said that - wait for it - “The sidewalks ARE the bike lanes.”  Crozet Master Plan is here.

Mark your calendars for this Thursday!  This “Growth Summit” seems interesting.  The more public involvement, the better.From the CCA’s listserv:We are scheduled to have the requested July meeting this week on Thursday at 7:30 at the Firehouse.  This is a special summer meeting called to address issues related to the rapid development going on around Crozet.  There will be a report from the Crozet Community Advisory Council, the Board of Supervisors’ appointed group that is asked to advise the BOS on Crozet concerns.  It has met three times and is asking for public input.  There will be discussion of a proposal to hold a “Growth Summit” in Crozet in September, where the general public, members of the BOS, the Advisory Committee, and others will address the build-out projections, the development of commercial space in and around Crozet, the re-zoning process, the protection of rural space, and other concerns.  People from other growth areas in the County would be invited to attend.

The zoning notices pop up all the time; keeping track of them is a difficult task.

The Crozet population matter comes to a head this Wednesday, 5 July.The full text of the proposed resolution.  One (sarcastic) question: why all the “Whereas’”?  From Crozet’s Community Association’s newsletter:This is the resolution that sets Crozet’s target population at 24,000, not 12,000.  (As of 2005, Crozet had a population somewhere between 3,500-4,000).  Because those links did not work in the last message, THE FULL TEXT OF THE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AND THE RESOLUTION ARE BELOW.  In January, the Board voted unanimously to affirm that 12,000 was not the ultimate target population figure for Crozet, but apparently they feel that that resolution was not strong enough, so this resolution is in front of them for a vote this Wednesday.  This would be a good time to speak up regarding what your thoughts were regarding the size of Crozet if you were involved in any Master Planning meetings or have read about the Crozet Master Plan over the years….  IF YOU WANT TO ADDRESS THE BOARD ABOUT THIS MATTER, PLEASE COME AT 9 A.M. AND SPEAK IN THE FIRST PART OF THE MEETING WHERE ANYONE CAN SPEAK FOR THREE MINUTES ON ANY MATTER.
