BACKGROUND

On March 23, 2022, the Board of Supervisors approved a new Zoning Ordinance, Zoning Map, Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance, and Stormwater Management Ordinance.

This action changed the majority of the zoning in this area from I1-Light Industrial to I2-General Industrial, despite it being surrounded by many residential neighborhoods.

As a result of this approval, the zoning for 401 Mulberry Drive was changed from split-zoned as I1 and R1— to split-zoned as I2 and I1.
According to the new Zoning Ordinance, warehouses are not a permitted use within the I1 zone.
Existing businesses along Texaco Road were operating within the previous I1 zone—without the need for any additional zoning change.

Donations are still being collected to help offset expenses for hired legal counsel and professional engineers
