VFW ready to build but will there be another curb & gutter battle?

Published

on

VFW, Post 1860, has submitted an application to establish an assembly hall (lodge) on their property located at the end of N. Royal Avenue adjacent to the South Fork of the Shenandoah River. The  new lodge will be built in the same location that the previous lodge, before it was destroyed by fire and then demolished in 2015. The Planning Commission reviewed the Application on November 28, 2018 and recommended approval with the conditions noted in the Staff Report. The new lodge will be elevated to comply with the floodplain requirements.
