Rezoning update

Rezoning update

Your RPMIA Inc. Board of Directors would like to encourage all Riverbend Plantation residents to “remain engaged” in the rezoning issue.

We believe that the HCBE board members and staff are listening to the concerns of the Thompson Mill Road corridor homeowners and are considering alternatives to the proposed rezoning maps.

As a property owner or parent, you can influence this process by doing any or all of the following:

1.) Stay informed. Updated information and meeting schedules are available on the HCBE website at hcbe.net

2.) Talk it up. Keep your friends, family and neighbors engaged by “talking up” the issue. Encourage them to stay informed by visiting hcbe.net for current information.

3.) Attend any HCBE board meetings that you can. Don’t be afraid to bring people with you. There is strength in numbers!

4.) Post your comments or concerns on the HCBE website at hcbe.net

You may also want to consider contacting any of the HCBE board members personally to discuss your concerns. They will listen. If you choose to post comments or contact a board member, please be respectful and courteous while voicing your concerns.

It is very important that we “remain engaged” until this rezoning process is complete. We believe that if any alternative maps are to be considered, they will be available for review at the January 11th HCBE work session or at the January 12th HCBE board meeting. The final vote on the rezoning maps is scheduled to occur on January 28, 2010. We must “remain engaged” until the final vote!
