Raymond Farm Developer Seeks to Side Step Critical Commitment for Development Approval Made in 2003 - Raymond Farm LC is seeking an amendment to the conditions of their Special Exception approval which would greatly increase the County's liability risk for the Raymond Farm community wastewater treatment system. The Planning Commission forwarded this request to the Board of Supervisors on 29 April 2010 with a recommendation to deny this request. The Board of Supervisors extended their August 12th Public Hearing on this item for up to 90 days. CFFC supports the Planning Commissions recommendation. See our analysis on our Raymond Farms Wastewater page.
