The Pantops Master Plan was approved by the [[Albemarle County Board of Supervisors]] at their meeting on March 17, 2008.<ref>[http://cvilletomorrow.typepad.com/charlottesville_tomorrow_/2008/03/pantops.html 'Supervisors approve Pantops Master Plan; Wheeler property removed', Charlottesville Tomorrow]</ref>

In September of 2007, the Board of Supervisors held a Public Hearing to listen to public input on the draft Pantops Master Plan, where they requested additional information from County staff so they could further evaluate several issues raised in the Public Hearings.

The County is building the Pantops Master Plan to incorporate the principles of the Neighborhood Model of development. The Plan will provide a "framework for transportation, land use, design guidelines, and public infrastructure.

"Public participation has been critical to the development of the draft plan, with residents, property owners, and other stakeholders working with county staff and consultants to develop the five guiding principles which capture what is most important for a high quality of life in Pantops. These principles include respect for natural, historical, and scenic assets, especially the [[Rivanna River]] system, new development that fits with existing character, housing choices, improving pedestrian systems, addressing transportation issues, and providing adequate community facilities and services."
