With the support of a grant from the Delta Regional Authority (DRA), the City of Abbeville is excited to develop a city-wide Master Plan to guide the future of our community. A Master Plan captures a community’s long-term vision for the future and defines a clear path to reach that vision. Developing a plan will help Abbeville be more unified, intentional, and strategic in realizing the future it wants. The strategies included in a master plan cover a range of issues impacting Abbeville such as transportation, economic development, and housing.

As part of our ongoing outreach and planning efforts, we would like to invite you to join us on Thursday, April 11th, at the RiverFront Banquet Room (503 W Port Street), next to the downtown bridge, for a community open house beginning at 4 PM. This is an opportunity for the residents of Abbeville to help create our first city-wide master plan by sharing your hopes, concerns, and dreams for the future. The meeting is open house style where participants will work through a series of stations, each providing information and activities to participate in. Participants can drop in anytime between 4 PM and 6:30 PM to provide input. The planning team will be on hand to facilitate the activities and to answer community questions.

Community engagement lies at the core of this process, and we want YOUR VOICE to be heard. Let’s come together and share our ideas for a brighter future in Abbeville! See you there!
