Draft Plan - Opportunities for Feedback

UPDATE: The Planning Commission work session has been rescheduled to Wednesday, August 14 at 7 pm. This meeting will take place in person at Rockville City Hall. There will be no online component of this meeting. For additional information about this meeting, please contact comprehensiveplan@rockvillemd.gov.

The weather is heating up and so are things with the Town Center Master Plan! Since releasing the draft Plan in April, city staff have been meeting with stakeholders, community groups, and members of the public to talk about the Plan’s goals, policies and actions. We will be hosting two public meetings to share the Plan’s recommendations and to talk about WMATA’s concept for improvements to the Rockville Metro Station. Join us on one of the following dates to learn more about both projects:

  • Tuesday, June 18 at 7 pm. This is a virtual meeting, and registration is required to receive the meeting link. Register for the virtual meeting here.

  • Monday, June 24 at 7 pm. This meeting will take place in person in the Mayor and Council Chambers at Rockville City Hall.

The next step in the process is to bring the Plan to the Planning Commission for their review and approval. It is anticipated that the Plan will come before the Planning Commission at least four times. Staff currently anticipate the following schedule for the Planning Commission:

  • Wednesday, June 26 at 7 pm – Presentation and Introduction.

  • Wednesday, July 10 at 7 pm – Public Hearing where public testimony will be accepted in person or in writing.

  • Wednesday, July 24 August 14 at 7 pm – Work session, discussion and instructions.

  • Wednesday, September 11 at 7 pm – Approval and transmission to the Mayor and Council.

If the aforementioned schedule sticks, the draft Plan, with any modifications as instructed by the Planning Commission, will be introduced to the Mayor and Council in late September/early October.

Don’t forget to complete the Draft Plan Feedback Form on Engage Rockville to provide your thoughts on the Plan. Completing this form, in addition to any public testimony or attending a public meeting, helps staff understand the community’s perspective and helps staff bring these perspectives to each approval body in an organized way.
