Town of Bedford
“This could be the last bit of action related to Bedford’s reversion to
town status that will take place for some time. As part of that voluntary
settlement agreement with Bedford County, the city agreed to temporarily
classify properties brought into the town limits by applying the town zoning
district most like the county zoning district in which the property was located
prior to reversion. The agreement then called for the town to either affirm the
zoning districts established or reclassify any parcels into different zoning
districts, as council deemed appropriate.
As part of this effort, letters were sent to property owners within
those areas brought into the town with reversion advising them of their right
to request rezoning of their property. Last Thursday four of those requests
came before the Bedford Planning Commission, which unanimously supported the
requests. Council was scheduled to officially take action on the same requests
at the Tuesday, Dec. 10 meeting. All costs associated with the requests were to
be covered by the town.”
