Board of Supervisors Initiatives
The Board of Supervisors establishes priorities and initiatives for Hanover County's government for each fiscal year. These are the Board’s adopted initiatives for FY 2010:
- Implement Fire/EMS Quick Response Program. This re-deploys existing resources to ensure that Advanced Life Support (ALS) providers have greater availability for life-threatening emergencies while meeting the Board’s response time goals
- Expand use of the Hanover Center for Trades and Technology Center for residents and businesses
- Transition the Day Support program offered by Community Services to the old Mechanicsville Library. The conversion of the old Library to the new use is underway
- Further develop workforce transition assistance to help residents find employment
- Enhance communication methods to citizens and businesses via direct e-mail notifications to keep interested parties more informed of local government. To subscribe to this service, signup for HAN (Hanover Access News) on the home page.
- Review citizen survey results to assess services and other perspectives of citizens for enhancement
- Continue the update of zoning ordinances with focus upon reorganization of ordinances for better clarity and review of industrial districts
- Recognize and continually adjust to the new fiscal reality through closely monitored economic information
- Develop coordinated energy and environmental management plan and standards for County facilities, infrastructure and equipment
- Continue Bond Referendum project construction through completion of the new communications system and park improvements and begin construction of Black Creek Fire Station
