5. Modernize Communication with Residents

Blacksburg’s website and communication tools should make it easy for residents to stay informed.

Currently, important information can be difficult to find, and property signage for zoning changes is often confusing or overlooked.

Residents deserve better access to information about what is happening in their community.

What I Will Do

• Modernize the town website to make it clear, searchable, and user-friendly

• Ensure proposals and development plans are easy to access online

• Improve communication channels with residents

• Use multiple outreach tools so residents learn about changes early

Why It Matters

Good governance requires clear communication.
