CONSERVATION ALERT!!! 

  A TURNOUT OF SUPPORT IS NEEDED ON FEB 8 TO PREVENT A BIG SUBDIVISION AND FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS IN AN AREA IDENTIFIED AS THE HEART OF THE RAPPAHANNOCK RIVER�S BALD EAGLE CONCENTRATION AREA AND AS A CONSERVATION DISTRICT IN RICHMOND COUNTY�S OWN COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.

Issue:  The Richmond County Planning Commission voted on January 8 to recommend REZONING 260 acres along the Fones Cliffs stretch of the Rappahannock River from A-1 to R-1.  If approved by the Board of Supervisors, this would allow a density of 1 house per acre.  The landowner proposes to place 50 � 75 houses where currently there are prime forested habitats that support some of the highest densities of eagles in Virginia, migratory waterfowl, cliff-dwelling barn owls, and several species of declining migratory birds.  It is also adjacent to spawning and nursery areas of native fish.

Action Needed:  Contact the Board of Supervisors to urge them to deny the rezoning request and to adhere to their own comprehensive plan.  Encourage them to takes additional steps to protect the Rappahannock River corridor from development to preserve this historic and valuable asset, preserve water and forest quality and preserve the rural character of the Northern Neck.  This issue is a big domino, which, if it falls, will impact what�s left of the undeveloped shoreline. 

Mark your calendars!  Please come to the Board meeting on February 8, 2007 and let your voice be heard!

Location of Richmond County hearings are usually in the main courtroom of
Richmond County Courthouse, and usually start at 7:00 p.m.  Check the
Northern Neck News for announcements to be certain.
