State agency backs annexation

Town of Front Royal
“A state agency paved the way Monday for Front Royal to grow by more than 600 acres and potentially add up to 800 homes. Warren County and Front Royal now must give residents another chance to speak about the proposed annexation. The town and county plan to hold public hearings on the voluntary settlement agreement that outlines the boundary adjustment and development of the property.

The Front Royal Limited Partnership filed a citizen-initiated annexation proposal with the Commission on Local Government in 2012 seeking to add 605 acres of undeveloped land it owns in Warren County to the town boundaries. More than a year later, leaders with Front Royal and Warren County crafted a voluntary settlement agreement with the developer that outlined both the incorporation of the land into the town and restrictions for future construction on the property.”
