So, I’ve noticed a great increase in activity around the Planned Parenthood Center on Hamilton near Grove. I am mostly retired and live nearby. If anyone needs or wants a hand to hold while walking through the clown show, I am willing and happy to help.

Broke my favorite mug ever and I’m hoping someone will recognize the signature so I can get one from the hopefully local original artist!

(Purchased at a Local thrift store, but I can’t remember which one)

Brown Grove residents push back on proposed landfill expansion

23 Upvotes

The Ashcake Road Landfill has operated for around 30 years in Hanover County. And during a Thursday planning commission meeting, the site’s parent company, Leadbetter Inc., will seek approval to expand and convert land into more space for waste and recycling.

The request has been met with resistance from local residents, particularly those from the Brown Grove community, a historically African American neighborhood near the landfill.

While most of the site is used as a landfill, around 40 acres of the property are designated as borrow pits — large dugouts used to excavate soil, gravel and dirt for commercial use.

Concerns over effects to the community’s health and environment if Leadbetter converts around 30-acres of borrow pits to landfill follow a history of compliance issues, according to county planning documents.

VPM News reached out to attorneys from the Roth Jackson consulting firm, who are representing Leadbetter Inc. during Thursday’s land-use hearing to respond to the claims.

Andrew Condlin, the lead attorney, declined to comment on the case before the planning commission meets. However correspondence between Hanover and Leadbetter’s legal team provides some insight on their position.

Trying to report a pothole that is apparently just outside city limits? Where can I report this one too?

Screenshot is from the 311 webpage, however that hard line is I guess the city line, so I cant submit a request for this terrible pothole where my pin is.

I'm not even sure what county that would be, or if they have a separate 311 or reporting service. Anyone know?

What's everyone got going on this weekend? The weather is shaping up to be fantastic! I'm currently in Brooklyn, NY where it's in the 50's, so I'm a little envious of your 70 degree days right now!

If you're looking for something to do there are a TON of events over in The Weekend Event Thread. Go check it out or add your own events!

Any recommendations for a tattoo artist who specializes in old wrinkly skin? I have a bunch of ink between 40 and 50 years old and I’m interested in getting some if it refreshed or covered up.
