Planning staff outlines five-year comprehensive plan update, invites commissioners to join subcommittees

Surry County Planning Commission · February 24, 2025

Summary

Planning staff said the county will begin a five-year comprehensive plan update focusing on water/sewer needs, housing shortages, and future land-use pressures in areas such as Bacon's Castle and Hog Island Road, and invited commissioners to participate in subcommittees.

Mister Wade, the planning commission secretary, told commissioners the county will begin a five-year comprehensive plan update to address changes since the 2020 plan, including water and sewer master planning with HRSD and potential residential development pressure in Bacon's Castle and Hog Island off Hog Island Road.

Wade encouraged commissioners to sign up for district-focused subcommittees and work with consultants to identify areas for future residential and commercial development and to plan water and sewer infrastructure accordingly. "We're gonna work on this comprehensive plan for probably the next couple of months with our consultants," Wade said, asking commissioners to participate in focused assignments.
