The planning process includes an inventory of public and private recreation areas and facilities, an outdoor recreation and open space demand survey and the plan document itself. The inventory phase has been completed, and data on more than 6,000 sites has been entered into a DCR database. Another important part of the VOP preparation is input from users of the 1996 Virginia Outdoors Plan. If not, please provide us with recommended changes. Copies of the plan were distributed to each county, city, and many towns and should be available for review.
Many libraries have copies in their reference material.
Also it can be downloaded from this web link . VOP public meetings are designed to provide the public with the opportunity to comment on the plan and make recommendations on information to be included. A detailed schedule of meetings soon follow. Meeting notices will be placed in local newspapers, the Virginia Register, this website and other locations.
