Plans for creative maker district move ahead in Fredericksburg

The Fredericksburg City Council has opened public comments regarding a set of resolutions to make a new  Creative Maker Zone a reality.

The creative maker district would span an over 78-acre area of Downtown Fredericksburg which would encompass the Area 6 district, which lies between the Rappahannock River and the Rappahannock Canal and would include Princess Anne Street as well as where Princess Anne and Route 1 intersect.

If approved, businesses like building materials sales, open-air markets, contractor offices, general industrial services, and repair, light manufacturing would all be allowed. Today, those types of businesses would need to seek a special-use permit in order to open.
