Does everyone remember this statement from Corey, Washington Post Oct 19th?
Stewart said that developers were pleased with the direction the board has taken as a whole in easing permit restrictions, building roads and other key infrastructure and keeping taxes low.
He said that he has never taken donations from developers while they have a project pending before the board.
I’ll bet “developers are pleased with the direction of the board!” Does Avendale ring any bells?!
Tell me, please, why do people spin the truth when the facts can so clearly create obvious contradictions. From today’s Inside Nova:
On Oct. 7, Bruni Peters of Fairfax-based RK Realty contributed $10,000 to Stewart – just 11 days before Stewart and the rest of the Prince William Board of County Supervisors unanimously approved a comprehensive land use amendment and a re-zoning of one of Bruni’s future mixed-use properties.
At issue is the Hunter at Haymarket development. Thanks to the board’s vote, a six-acre portion of a 44-acre parcel of land off U.S. 15 was approved for office space. The board also approved a higher density residential zoning for nearly 10 of 15 acres that were originally designated semi-rural residential.
