Onancock Planning Commission Citizen Workshop 3 November 2025, 6-8 pm
The Town of Onancock has a Comprehensive Plan, required by state statute. (If you want to
see the current plan, it can be found on the town website.) It is time for the Comprehensive
Plan to be revised, and the Onancock Planning Commission has the task of preparing it.
We will spend the winter months preparing a first draft and will share it for comment. Now
we are working to gather ideas and concerns from residents and local businesspeople.
This is the first of several gatherings. The results of these gatherings will be pulled together
into a report that will be available for the public and will help the Planning Commission with
its work.
FIRST TASK. You will be organized into groups and will introduce yourself to your group
members. Elect a spokesperson.
SECOND TASK. QUESTION PROMPTS. These are intended to get the conversation
going and provide guidance to the Planning Commission. Take a few minutes to jot
down responses. Then your group will discuss and collect your ideas onto paper, and
your spokesperson will present them to the meeting.

What else do we need to know?
TASK THREE. Please rank these topics in order of importance to you. Discuss this in
your small group and decide which are the top three. We will have a chance to discuss
your group’s decisions. If your top three didn’t make the cut, we will ask you to make
the case for your favorites.
