Office hours will also be held at the Mechanicsville Library on Tuesday, April 18 from 12-2 p.m. to allow for more informal one-on-one conversations with the project team.  Residents can also participate in a webinar that will be held on Thursday, April 20 from 12-1 p.m. You can register for the webinar here. 

Since the Envision Hanover planning process began in Fall 2021, the public has been asked to provide ideas and input on a variety of different topics related to the County’s long-range growth and development. Over 4,000 comments have been received. 

Visit www.envisionhanover.com regularly for information on upcoming public events and to review draft documents related to the Comprehensive Plan Update. You can also follow Envision Hanover on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter for regular updates. 

The update process is expected to continue through Summer/Fall 2023.
