Route 250 is a scenic byway so what is the point?  Tear up Crozet and make it into Anytown and then have two lane congestion to get anywhere? Nope, limited growth is all the area can stand and all the rest of the County is willing to pay for.  Then again, that is a great suggestion for not building the Municipal Building/Library.  A turning lane????

All the delays cost the developers time and money.  It does not take long before they pull out. Short Pump is not that far a drive. Check it out. Is this what the Crozet Community wants?? Quality of life is already diminished, how much farther do you want it to go? Historic District would be a way to go. Get involved, make believe WalMart and Restore N Station are coming to ttown...

I don't get involved with self-serving non elected boards. Walking to school, shopping in Crozet does not change anything.  Those options existed before this nonsense did. "Our coffee shops", I did not know you were involved with them.  How about some decent paying jobs where people could afford to live here? Building a decent community takes alot more than buying and selling it. I am more involved than you might think. I don’t get involved with self-serving non elected boards.

Also, to realize that what is here now will not be in the future. The large influx of realtors , developers, northern people, into a small rural southern community will create something that is attractive to no one. Once the predators that live off these arrive it should really take off.  The "get involved" comment is interesting. Get involved in what? There are no elected officials, the area is unincorporated, the current BOS can not appoint a new chairman because the expired one can not grow up enough to step down.  On the bright side, Crozet will not be the first decent place taken over and ruined by external interests...
