The Document that will Guide the County’s Economic Growth for Decades is in Crisis
For nearly three years, County staff and stakeholders have attempted to rewrite the ordinance that enforces land use plans and guides economic and residential growth in Loudoun. Yet, in its current form, the draft ordinance remains overly complex, inconsistent, restrictive, and unfriendly to business.
Keynote Speaker: Charles Yudd
Why It matters: If these conditions are not corrected, future development in Loudoun will be hampered by increased costs, time and uncertainty.
On April 18th, the Loudoun Chamber will host a conversation with housing, tourism and land use experts to discuss the good, the bad and what needs to be fixed with the current draft ordinance, before the Board of Supervisors attempts to finalize this document this summer.
Keynote Speaker: Charles Yudd, Deputy Administrator, Loudoun County Government
Moderator: Colleen Gillis, Land Use and Zoning Partner, Cooley LP
Panelists:
- Beth Erickson, CEO, Visit Loudoun; Member, Rural Economic Development Council (REDC); Member, Economic Development Advisory Commission; Member, Economic Development Advisory Commission ZOR Ad-hoc Group
- John Mossgrove, Project Manager, Merritt Properties; Co-Chair, Loudoun Government Relations Subcommittee, NAIOP
- Angela Rassas, Vice President, Land Entitlement, Toll Brothers; Member, Loudoun County Facilities Standards Manual Public Review Committee
- Matthew Lawrence, Associate Vice President and Office Director, Pennoni; Loudoun Chapter President, NVBIA
Join us at this next edition in the 2023 PolicyMaker Series, to learn more about Loudoun’s Zoning Ordinance and how the Board can achieve its goals for creating new jobs, expanding affordable housing and attracting new investments to ensure the future prosperity and quality of life in our community.
