SAVE OUR GREEN SPACE in WINCHESTER! Request the City Council Vote NO on Rezoning 12/14/21

The Issue

Elevate Homes, an out-of-town developer has requested about 28 acres of beautiful green space near Meadow Branch be rezoned to allow for a planned unit development (PUD) so that this green space can be destroyed, and 74 homes built on this land. 

We strongly oppose this rezoning request based on: (1) the storm water management system currently in place will be overburdened by this new development and flooding in Williamsburg Heights will become even more problematic than it is currently; (2) traffic along Jefferson, Seldon, Nester and Meadow Branch is projected to increase significantly creating safety hazards for our neighborhoods; (3) destruction of green space has a direct impact on quality of life in our community; (4) the impact on the value of existing homes.   

If these issues cause concern for you, please sign this petition to request that the Winchester City Council deny the PUD rezoning request.
