BFJ Planning, which has been hired by Orange to update their 2015 plan of conservation and development, will host a public workshop on Nov. 13 at High Plains Community Center.
The workshop, which runs from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., will seek feedback from the broader Orange community, create a vision for the POCD and identify key issues and opportunities within the town.
The POCD update will guide the town’s growth, preservation efforts and quality of life for the next 10 years, and BFJ is seeking robust public participation. Key topics will include land use, open space, transportation, municipal facilities, the local economy and environmental concerns.
The workshop will begin with a presentation by the project consultants, who will provide an overview of the POCD planning process, the town’s current conditions and a summary of initial findings. Following the presentation, participants will have the opportunity to share feedback and discuss issues and opportunities for the future of Orange.
