Board adopts consent agenda, grants easement to Dominion, abandons two Catlett streets and postpones church event request
Summary
Supervisors adopted the consent agenda, approved an underground-easement to Dominion Energy, enacted an ordinance abandoning two Catlett streets and left open a church special-exception hearing to allow further community meetings through year-end.
The Fauquier County Board of Supervisors completed several routine and administrative items during the meeting.
- Consent agenda: The board adopted the consent agenda as previously amended (no roll-call names provided in the transcript).
- Dominion easement: The board held a public hearing and approved a resolution granting Dominion Energy (Virginia Electric and Power Company) an easement for underground electric service across a county-owned parcel on Clifton Street in Marshall. No public speakers addressed the easement; the motion to adopt the resolution passed.
- Catlett road abandonments: The board opened and closed a public hearing for an ordinance to abandon State Street and a portion of Center Street between Burgess Street and State Street in Catlett, concluding there were no speakers, and adopted the ordinance.
- Church of God, Midland special exception: The board opened the public hearing on a request for multiple special exceptions (major place of worship and class B events) and heard comments from the applicant’s attorney and neighboring property owners concerned about septic, groundwater and traffic impacts. The applicant asked for additional time to meet with board members and the community; the board voted to keep the public hearing open through the end of the year to allow continued discussions. The applicant also reduced requested event days and committed to hydrologic testing as part of the revised application.
- Appointments: The board confirmed several committee and board appointments, including a library-board nomination and appointments to PDR and Agricultural Review boards; motions to appoint were moved, seconded and carried.
The meeting record shows these actions were procedural and administrative; the transcript includes limited discussion on each item and no contested votes other than items covered elsewhere in the meeting.
