Subject: Plan Amendment 2013-I-L1(B) (Lincolnia Planning District Study, Phase II, Community Business Center Consideration) Adopted Text
The 2017 Edition of the Comprehensive Plan has been updated as a result of Plan amendment 2013-I-L1(B), adopted by the Board of Supervisors on March 6, 2018.
2017-07 - Lincolnia Planning District Study, Phase II, Community Business Center Consideration: On July 9, 2013 the Board of Supervisors authorized the consideration of a Comprehensive Plan amendment for the Lincolnia Planning District. The authorization directed staff to update and review Comprehensive Plan guidance for the area and to consider whether a portion of the planning district should be designated as a Community Business Center (CBC). This multi-phased study is still ongoing with the Board of Supervisors concluding Phase II, adopting the Lincolnia CBC designation on March 6, 2018. Phase III, beginning in early Spring 2018, will provide detailed land use and transportation analysis with recommendations for the newly designated Lincolnia CBC. District-wide recommendations will also be discussed.
The adopted text for this amendment (adopted text No. 2017-07) can be found here. This amendment revised the following sections of the Comprehensive and Policy Plans:
· Area I: Overview, Baileys Planning District and Lincolnia Planning Districts
· Area II: Overview
· Area III: Overview
· Area IV: Overview
· Policy: Preface and Introduction

1. If you maintain a paper copy of the Comprehensive Plan, please print the affected section and replace the old text in your Plan notebooks.
2. If you have "short cuts" or "favorites" on your computer that link to the Plan, be sure to refresh those links and check to be sure they link to the newest version by checking the “amended through” dates in these revised sections.
