The full story
The Accomack County Board of Supervisors voted Dec. 18 to adopt code amendments that repeal Articles 3 and 4 of Chapter 38 and reenact Article 3 to align the county’s erosion and stormwater management rules with state law and the DEQ model ordinance. Mike Mason, county administrator, summarized changes including clearer thresholds for land-disturbing permits (staff noted the 2,500-square-foot threshold), new technical standards for E&S control devices, long-term maintenance criteria and enforcement and appeals provisions. There were no public speakers at the hearing and the ordinance was approved by voice vote.
