TOWN OF
PUBLIC MEETING ON
NEEDED MEDICAL SERVICES &
SENIOR ADULT HOUSING OPTIONS
The Town of Rich Creek invites interested citizens to attend a Public Meeting on Monday, November 9, 6:00 p.m. in the council room at 140 North and Spruce Streets to provide participants with an overview of an upcoming study of the need for additional medical services and senior adult housing options. The planning study will be conducted over the next five months to survey community residents and medical service providers to confirm needs and demand; conduct stakeholder/management team meetings; identify physical assets needed to fulfill unmet demand; and prepare initial engineering and architectural plans. These activities may lead, upon completion, to the submission of a Community Improvement Grant application to the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development in April, 2010.
This Public Meeting will also give participants an opportunity to provide their initial input as well as identify individuals to serve on a stakeholders committee.
Representatives of K. W. Poore & Associates, a planning firm contracted by the Town of Rich Creek to conduct the planning study, will be present and will assist with the meeting.
