Hi
Community
The New River ParkwayAuthor-
ity has scheduled its second com-
munity workshop fgr Wed. Jan. 24,
1990. The afternoon session will be
conducted in the Memorial Build-
ingin Hinton from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00
p.m. and will focus on that section
of the Parkway from -1,64 to Hinton.
The evening sessfons will empha-
size the southern segment from
Hinton to 1-77 and will be held in
the Council Chambers, Princeton
Municipal Building from 7:00 p.m.
to 9:00 p.m.
The purpose of the workshops is
to obtain public input in the devel-
opment of the master plan and land
management system for the New
River Parkway. When finalized,
they will serve as the primary pol-
icy statement and guide to develop-
ment within the parkway corridor.
The second workshop in Hinton
will focus on more specific issues
than addressed in the initial ses-
sion. Topics scheduled for discus-
sion include the following: 1) trash
and litter, 2) driveway access, 3)
right to hunt within the corridor, 4)
boat docks and boat launches, 5)
camping , 6) wetlands, 7) water
quality, and 8) visitors center. The
workshop in Princeton will fosuc on
the southern end of the Parkway
and will be more generalized in its
approach. This session will address
issues such as where the Parkway
should begin, whether it should
have limited access, and what ac-
tivities shoul d be encouraged within
its corridor.
The community workshops pro-
vide an excellent opportunity for
interested citizens to voice opinions
and contribute ideas. Anyone inter-
ested in the Parkway and the devel-
opment of tourism in the area is
urged to attend.
For more information, contact
the Parkway Office at 466-0000.
