Two major rezotungs —both for commercial purposes—gained approval from the supervisors in 1979. Furniture maker Peter Kramer successfully applied to have 0.26 acres on which the old Washington mill sits rezoned from flood plain-agricultural to commercial. Kramer plans to restore the historic structure and remodel it into a restaurant and antique shop.
In December, the supervisors granted the request of the Culpeper Farmers Co-op to rezone 9.6 acres behind the company’s new building from agriculture t©. commercial. The supervisors’ action came despite objections from several of the county’s planning commissioners on what they saw as excessive acreage for a commercial rezoning. Co-op plans call for the additional land to be
^used for storage.
