BREDL: Appeal to VA Supreme Court
December 4, 2018 @ 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm
At noon on Tuesday December 4, 2018, the Virginia Supreme Court (100 North 9th Street, Richmond) will hear the Petition for Appeal in Record # 180933, Blue Ridge Environmental Defense League, Inc. et al, v. Robert C. “Bobby” Jones, Chairman, Buckingham County Board of Supervisors.
The challenge is to the Buckingham Board of Supervisors for their approval of a Special Use Permit for the proposed Buckingham Compressor Station in an agricultural zone, and says that the SUP ordinance allows for exceptions for utilities, but the ACP is a transmission line rather than a utility.
Chuck Lollar, BREDL’s attorney, encourages attendance by the public. The appeal asks the court to hear the case on its merits as it was previously dismissed due to technical omissions. If the court grants the appeal, it will be sent to the Circuit Court.
