The Commission on Local Government received a presentation on a voluntary settlement agreement between the Town of New Market and Shenandoah County and approved a review schedule that includes party presentations and a public hearing on March 9, 2023.

Jason Ham of Litten & Sipe LLP presented the agreement overview on behalf of both parties. Todd Walters represented the Town of New Market and Evan Vass represented Shenandoah County. The parties proposed a schedule with presentations and a public hearing on Thursday, March 9, followed by Commission discussion on Friday, March 10.

At Chair Diane M. Linderman's suggestion, the Commission amended the Friday meeting start time to 9:00 a.m. The transcript records the schedule as presented and the time amendment; no formal roll-call vote is recorded for that administrative change in the transcript.

Next steps: staff will finalize the March meeting logistics and circulate the agreed schedule so parties and the public can plan to attend the presentations and public hearing.
