Maintain the Comprehensive Plan current land use designation on parcels owned by Glade Heights, LLC
I am a resident in the Town of Blacksburg and I support the current Future Land Use designations in the Northwest Sector.
Glade Heights, LLC has submitted an application to modify the future land use designation on two of their parcels, 225- A 3 and 225- A 4, to be entirely "low density residential". This would be a major increase in density allowed for future land use because the majority of the property currently has a future land use of "very low density residential".
I believe that this proposed amendment to the future land use classification would be out of character with the surrounding neighborhoods and would result in degrading the quality of the tributary to Tom's Creek which flows through the property and ultimately through Heritage Park.
I am opposed to this proposed modification to the 2046 Comprehensive Plan.

The volume of support has secured a formal meeting with the Planning Commission next week. I am currently drafting a letter outlining the environmental concerns regarding Tom's Creek for their official review.

Leave the land alone. That creek is beautiful and we need to protect heritage park from all this runoff garbage.
Really concerned about the environment here. Once u pave over that land its gone forever and we cant get it back.
STOP BUILDING. Enough is enough.
Keep it as is. We dont need more houses crammed into that space, it will ruin the whole vibe of the neighborhood.
Glad to see people standing up for the original plan. Dont let developers change everything just to make a quick buck.

The increase in density is way too much for our town. Think about the traffic on those roads already!
