The James City County Citizens' Coalition (J4C) is a non-profit,
non-partisan community liaison group formed in 2006 to coordinate the activities of
existing groups working to protect and preserve our environmental resources and quality of life.
The Coalition:
- receives, defines and addresses issues of common concern,
such as traffic, development, water, infrastructure, schools,
and/or emergency services;
- develops and presents positions on these issues to the County boards and commissions;
- provides input to and participates in the development of the Comprehensive Plan,
and other County studies, policies and procedures;
- conducts Community Education Forums to bring current issues before James City County residents; and
- promotes the importance of understanding the cumulative impact of residential and commercial growth
Vision:
The J4C is recognized as an effective communicator, educator and liaison for the citizens of the County. The J4C is dedicated to protecting and preserving the environment and quality of life and there by the health of our community. The J4C focuses on development, traffic, water resources, schools and infrastructure to secure their adequacy for future generations.
Mission:
Three major objectives have been established for the 2007-2008 operating year:
- No re-zoning or special use permit requests should be considered until the cumulative impact of such development projects has been established.
- Objective criteria should be established for developers when modifying approved plans. Promote a review process for re-zonings and master plan approvals which is better communicated to the public.
- Projects previously approved but not yet started would be encouraged to incorporate and comply with new or revised ordinances.
