Biscuit Run Development Approved

On Sep 13th, the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors approved developer Hunter Craig's 882 acre Biscuit Run Development.

A minimum of 3,100 new homes on the Albemarle property along Rt 20 South can be built.

Opponents called for more extensive environmental impact studies but the BOS voted unanimously to allow rezoning of the property.

But Craig's $41.15 million proffer offer ruled the day.

Albemarle BOS sees the develpment as a way to steer the thousands of people moving here into designated growth areas.
