The Comprehensive Plan Impacts You.

  • Industrial Blight
  • Higher Taxes

All the things citizens have pushed back on over the last two decades has been wrapped up like a massive Christmas gift and given to developers in the 2040 Comprehensive Plan update being voted on by the Board of County Supervisors on Tuesday, December 13.

With this plan, they have created a vehicle to exclude citizen oversight and input.  If passed, developers will get what they want across the county – industrial AND residential sprawl – with no sustainability.  How are county residents going to bear the burden for their master plan:  footing the bill for all the required industrial and urban infrastructure AND ensuring quality schools for our children with high-density residential sprawl?

“County leaves residents in the dark on comprehensive plan update”

“… I encourage county residents to review it (access links below). If nothing else, when the bulldozers show up next door, you’ll know whether it’s for another data center or more high-density housing.”

“Viriginia has a data center problem”

“…Right now Virginia is operating on auto-pilot, paying ever more in tax incentives and fueling conflict, sprawl and carbon emissions. That needs to change.”
