Granville sets Aug. 26 public forum (hybrid) to introduce town plan update; commissioners plan targeted outreach
Summary
The planning commission scheduled a public forum for Aug. 26 (6–7:30 p.m.) with both in-person and Zoom options and discussed outreach tactics—posters, Front Porch Forum, select board contact and targeted email/text reminders—to attract a modest audience for review of the draft plan and maps.
Staff announced a public forum on Aug. 26 from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m. to introduce town planning and the draft plan updates; he said the forum will include a short (20–25 minute) presentation, printed maps (future land‑use and current town plan) and time for public questions.
"I'll bring a large printout of the future land use map... and it'll mainly be just a short presentation of 20 minutes, 25 minutes introducing what town plans are," staff member Kyle said, describing the hybrid format (in-person with Zoom) and noting he would provide a poster and a short blurb for community postings.
Commissioners agreed on targeted outreach—email and listserv posts, multiple Front Porch Forum postings, and select-board contact—to try to get a small but engaged turnout; Kyle said he would confirm the venue date with town staff and share the poster for distribution. The forum will also include snacks to encourage attendance and a projected hybrid setup so Zoom participants can follow the presentation.
