Council approves two conditional use permits and a security‑fencing modification

Apr 15, 2026

Council approved two first‑reading conditional use permits — a 6‑foot front‑yard fence for Joy Fellowship Church at 1001 Perrymont Road and an appointment‑only auto repair at 225 South 15th Avenue — and a modification to allow barbed wire atop security fencing at Virginia American Water's intake at 915 Riverside Avenue. Approvals were consistent with staff recommendations and planning‑commission votes.
