Colonial Beach
“On Nov. 19, Colonial Beach property owner Sharron Fortier appealed the
decision of Colonial Beach Building and Zoning Director Gary Mitchell, who had
determined that, according to Article 7 of the zoning ordinance, her property,
located in the town’s resort commercial district, could not be used as a
single-family dwelling. Coincidentally, in September of this year, amendments
to Article 7 were put on hold at the town’s council level by now-former council
member Tim Curtin, and three other council members. The changes proposed to
Article 7 did not affect the section of the ordinance that covers the
disallowance of single-family dwellings within the Commercial Resort District.
At the Nov. 14 regular town council meeting, the council unanimously
passed Ordinance 635, approving amendments to Article 7 of the building and
zoning ordinance, after it had been tabled back in September.”
