The 15-member Comprehensive Plan Committee worked with Village officials and staff studying the results of a series of community discussions about Pittsford Village's future, including the design charrette held in 2000. Aiding them in documenting their task were representatives of the consulting firms Peter J. Smith & Company, Inc., Buffalo, and Barkstrom and LaCroix Architects, Rochester.

"The committee members who have worked for more than two years researching the issues, debating potential solutions, and crafting the comprehensive plan have been fantastic," says committee chair Rod Mattingly. "These are our friends and neighbors, and we should thank them for their countless hours of hard work.We also are grateful to their spouses, children, and parents, who saw them leave the house evening after evening to take part in this important process,"Mattingly said.

"The Village staff, Anne Hartsig, Mary Marowski, and Skip Bailey were also extremely supportive and always helpful throughout the process," Mattingly added.
