Mulberry Springs winery event-venue request tabled amid ongoing litigation
Summary
Planning staff recommended and the commission agreed to table Mulberry Springs Vineyard & Winery’s special-use and variance requests for an agri‑entertainment venue until pending litigation involving the county is resolved; the item was tabled to a date to be determined.
Mulberry Springs Vineyard & Winery’s application for an agri‑entertainment venue and related variances was tabled on Sept. 2 at staff’s recommendation because litigation involving the county and the winery remains unresolved. Planning staff told the commission that the request should not be scheduled until the lawsuit is resolved; commissioners unanimously voted to table the item to a date to be determined (motion by Frank Sosebee; vote 4-0, Hunt absent).
The request covered use and parking variances on a combined 19.43± acre assemblage at 4527 J M Turk Road and 4567 Stanley Road. Staff noted previous approvals and recent construction (a 2,400 square foot tasting room under construction) but recommended delay to avoid taking action while litigation is pending. Motion: table to date to be determined (mover: Frank Sosebee; second: Shannon Davidson; vote: 4-0).
