A holes in Virginia

[41chevy 9,889]

Just got home from my Unincorporated Villages Zoning Board. My appeal to their non zoning list of demands/ requirements was denied. Got the approval from the Federal EPA and ACE, got approval from the Common Wealth of Virginia, got the approval from Fluvanna County but the village want 60% solar and they want the residents to be anybody in instead of Disabled Vets. There is no out side money, there is no banks, there is only my outlay. All 34 houses were to be built and paid for by me and my wifes life insurance monies. Only requirements were 10 years residency in the house, utilities, up keep and taxes. So now I may just sell the entire 1140 acres to a developer or since it is  zoned as residential / heavy commercial I my just turn it into an 1100 acre 24/7 sand and gravel pit mine.

Go with the gravel pit. It'll be way less headaches.

This was my wife's wish and I said I will see it through. Equipment, house kits and tradesman are set to go, everything is mapped out both plat wise and legally. 23 disabled Vets and their families are tentatively  chosen to be given the first homes. I will not take stupid "green" requirements by some power mad town employee. Monday I will be at the local news channel and start my push back and get my vets homes or I will bankrupt the town.

Good for you Paul 

I hope some common sense prevails here 

 

[Mack Technician 1,292]

WOW! That’s the stuff legacies are made of Paul !!!

My only thought is put up a sign on the construction site which reads........ “Future 1,140 acre mass grave for soul-sucking green bureaucrats” and see if they go away? These mini-potentates are going to be the ruin of this country.

Your problems with Virginia Paul pale in comparison to the money state taxpayers will be giving Amazon to locate there.

Virginia has crashed since Her Majesty lost control of this colony.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A five-member panel of the Arlington County Board will vote on whether Amazon will receive the estimated $51 million, a fraction of the $481 million promised by the county. Five percent of the incentives are direct.

Amazon has also been offered a $750 million package by the state that the Virginia General Assembly approved with little opposition.

No signs other then hard hat area It'll be a stacker and gravel plant and an endless loop of the same material over and over 24/7

[Mack Technician 1,292]

After reading about your town I can’t picture what the locals think they have to lose if you build? Maybe I’m misinterpreting the “big plans” they have for the area. Whole place seems basically as Podunk, USA as the economically sleepy town I grew up in.

That's brilliant!

Are there any Vet-Friendly state or county level politicians who can help you?

[gxbxc 171]

sell to developers and let the wayward town suffer and have to pay for new schools every year to make up for the thousands of new kids, .then the police dept will have to be enlarged as well as the  Fire Dept .And now almost 20 years after the 9/11 attacks the fed is not quite as free with dolling out the cash.

[gxbxc 171]

Virginia used to be a nice place to live until the liberials and the never Trumpers took over ,Town seems to run like a housing association where some minnie god is trying to use his power as a penis extension

Good luck Paul, I thought you left Long Island to get away from people like this

Give ‘em hell Paul. The Veterans of our country deserves this. By knowing you over the years on BMT, I’d say they just stirred up a shit storm of great proportions

There is no one interested in the state  . . .YET.  Looking at 2 large bill boards to put up thanking the Zoning Commission for denying homes to disabled Veterans. I will be contacting the USMC Veterans Survivors  Housing Services at Quantico, the Iraqi and Gulf War Veterans Association and the Combat Infantry association which I belong to. But first the media.

Contact locals and see how many you can get to show up to raise hell at the next town meeting. And the meeting after that. And keep on filling the town meetings with angry citizens until you get your way! 

It sounds like the start of a great community, solidarity is important for people. Sounds like a neighborhood where families will be very close.

Problem with Virginia is the wind blows Washington DC garbage out to ruin local's dreams.

One of the problems is the three top State officials (who never should have been there in the first place) are mired down in scandal and trying to kiss ass to gain acceptance.

Well, I am in Pennsylvania, don't know what help I could be but if there is anything that I can do, please let me know.

I am also close friends with a retired USN Senior Chief who lives in Richmond. He has many, many contacts in various veterans organizations. Let me know if I can put you in touch with him, he may be of help.

I'll let you know. He may be the last resort. I really want one of two things to happen. The Veterans groups and media cuts them no slack with the burden of public outcry waking the head of zoning and gaining some sensibility  or my NYC property lawyers bankrupt them in court and I buy the village.

...we also have two senators that are only interested in Trump bashing and investigations and of course open borders.

Open Border is only a tax payer funded vote buying  scheme by the Dem's

They are now working hard to get  the National Popular Vote passed and also a new state law to disallow and candidate from running in any Primary or Presidential election unless they release 5 years of tax returns, just like N.J and Washington State. Luckily we have enough people to block them.

...they certainly qualify for the title of this thread.
