A former member of the Stafford County Board of Supervisors is trying to stall a vote on a redevelopment project to remake the county's historic courthouse area.
Cord Sterling, who represented the Rock Hill District until he stepped down six years ago, sued the Board of Supervisors, asking a judge for an injunction to delay a vote set for Tuesday, July 6, on the Fountain Park project. The development would sit on six acres of privately-owned land, just across the county courthouse, with four buildings, 94 apartments, and street-level commercial space.
The land needs to be rezoned from B-2 urban commercial to a higher classification, known as UD-5 zoning, which allows for more densely packed development. A county staff report, which, in part reads like a brochure for a timeshare, states, "Fountain Park will fit in with the Downtown Stafford, which, as proposed, will feature state-of-the-art amenities with a hometown feel, providing urban life at its best."
