The Lake Springfield Master Plan has been a vision in the works. The hiring of the consulting firm will get the ball moving.

The Lake Springfield area has been around since 1957, created by City Utilities to support the James River Power Station. Now, after the implosion of the power station, the city has received $800,000 in grant money to move forward with a “master plan,” which is expected to be completed by the summer of 2024.

Olivia Hough says the main focus right now is public feedback.

”CMT will be working hand in hand with our various city departments, City Utilities, nonprofits, and the larger community neighborhood residents to really pull something together,” said Hough.
