Warren County Planning Commission denies Crooked Run West LLC rezoning
At the Warren County Planning Commission meeting on April 10, 2019, the Crooked Run West LLC requested an amendment to the Future Land Map in the Warren County Comprehensive Plan to change their properties from “Commercial” to”Mixed Use Development. Also they requested to amend the Warren County Zoning Map and rezone some Commercial and Agricultural acres to Suburban Residential. Their third request was for a conditional use permit for a planned residential development.
The public spoke and and Commission listened. With a 2 to 1 vote (two members not present) voted to deny all of the requests. This could go to the Board of Supervisors for final action. One consideration really not mentioned is water. In the current agreement the County has with the Town (who has the water) no residential uses are permitted. So will they make changes to the agreement? This may be brought up at the next Town Council meeting. Stay tuned.
