Public Hearing on Rezoning Application for Fig Street Inn

CAPE CHARLES, Va. (AP) — The town will hold a public hearing to consider an application from Donna and Gregory Onley to conditionally rezone the property located at 711 Tazewell Avenue/302 Fig Street, known as the Fig Street Inn. The property, identified as Tax Map #83A4-2-A, #83A4-2-J, and #83A4-2-I, is currently zoned Residential-1 and operates under a Conditional Use Permit for a Bed & Breakfast.

The Onleys are seeking to rezone the property to Commercial Residential (CR) with specific proffers to limit the commercial activities permitted under the new zoning designation. This conditional rezoning aims to balance commercial use with the existing residential character of the neighborhood.

Residents and interested parties are encouraged to attend the public hearing to provide input on the proposed rezoning and its potential impact on the community. The hearing offers a platform for community members to voice their support or concerns regarding the change from residential to commercial residential zoning.
