Presentation at the Town of Centreville Planning Commission meeting (Sept. 16, 2020) reporting on the Community Plan Update with a focus on neighborhoods, mapping, and residential infill. It highlights environmental corridors along the Corsica River, major undeveloped infill tracts and projected housing growth (740 inside the town and about 4,970 in the growth area), and recommends coordinating housing growth with water and sewer, promoting infill and rehabilitation, a mix of housing types (including affordable units for low-and-moderate-income households and seniors), and planning complete neighborhoods with parks, schools, streets, and employment zones.
