The public hearing will occur at 7 p.m. The Board will also hold a planning public hearing on a request to amend the conceptual plan and proffers associated with the Taylor Farm development off Atlee Station Road. The proposed amendment would revise the approved elevations and proffers. The Board will also consider a proposed ordinance change regarding multiple preservation lots in the Rural Conservation District. The meeting begins at 3 p.m. but the Board is expected to be in closed session for the majority of the afternoon as they hold a personnel discussion for recruitment of a new County Administrator.

Planning Commission recommends approval of Wegman’s proposal

The Hanover Planning Commission voted 6-0 last night to endorse proffer amendments associated with the proposal of Air Park Associates for Wegman’s to develop a warehouse/distribution center on a 217-acre site east of the Hanover County Airport. The proposal would amend proffers associated with the County’s 1995 zoning of the property to Limited Industrial. The Board of Supervisors is expected to hold a public hearing on the proposed proffer amendments at its March 25 meeting. An exception to building height requirements also has been submitted to the Board for consideration.
