INTRODUCTION

Irasville is where the Mad River Valley comes to shop, dine, gather, and play. This village area has long been envisioned as a vibrant hub, with a thoughtful mix of homes, local businesses, services, and recreational amenities. For years this vision has been held in check, challenged by insufficient infrastructure, natural resource constraints, and a lack of planning progress.

Thanks to sustained efforts by local and regional partners, the time is ripe to reestablish an actionable, pragmatic, and forward-looking vision and roadmap for Irasville. The Irasville Village Master Plan aims to do just that. Starting in fall 2024, the Town of Waitsfield will lead a public process to develop this visionary plan for Irasville.
