Comprehensive Plan
Winter 2023-2024 Update
The City of Lynchburg is currently in the process of updating the Comprehensive Plan.
The Comprehensive Plan will build on recent and on-going efforts, such as the City’s Parks and Recreation Master Plan, Downtown 2040 Master Plan, and Diamond Hill Neighborhood Plan. The Comprehensive Plan will also be largely based on direct community input, with opportunities for community engagement beginning in September 2023 and running through December 2023.
