The Loudoun County Board of Supervisors’ Transportation and Land Use Committee will make recommendations on the Steep Slopes Zoning Ordinance Amendment at its meeting on October 16, 2015. The meeting begins at 9 a.m. The changes proposed by the Zoning Ordinance Action Group (ZOAG, a board appointed by the Board of Supervisors) would open hundreds of acres of fragile landscapes to more intensive development.

The Coalition has submitted a letter to the Board of Supervisors in opposition to many of the proposed changes. Below is a comprehensive report (you also can download it here) on the proposed changes, prepared by the Coalition’s Executive Committee. See the June 9 post (“Please attend public hearing on steep slopes zoning changes”) for more detailed information.
