General Notice
Public Comment Opportunity - Planning District Boundary Review
Date Posted: 8/7/2024
Expiration Date: 10/25/2024
Submitted to Registrar for publication: YES
79 Day Comment Forum is underway. Began on 8/7/2024 and will end on 10/25/2024

The Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD) is accepting public comments for the review of the boundaries of Virginia’s 21 planning districts. The Regional Cooperation Act outlines the duties and responsibilities of the Virginia Planning District Commissions (PDCs) and DHCD is required by § 36-139.7 to complete a review of planning district boundaries following each United States decennial census of population. This review is based on the release of the 2020 Census data.

 

DHCD welcomes stakeholders to provide specific comments with robust analysis on addressing the need for retaining or modifying the current boundaries. Here is a link to the current map of planning district boundaries: https://www.dhcd.virginia.gov/sites/default/files/Docx/clg/general-info/localities-and-pdcs.pdf

 

DHCD will hold an in-person public meeting (with a virtual option) on October 2, 2024 at 10:00am at the Virginia Housing Center (4224 Cox Rd, Glen Allen, VA 23060) to provide stakeholders the opportunity to provide verbal feedback. Electronic meeting access information can be found here

 

Comments on the planning district boundary review will be received through October 25, 2024 and should be submitted on the Virginia Regulatory Town Hall. Written comments may also be sent to Andrew Malloy at andrew.malloy@dhcd.virginia.gov or by mail:
