  1. this is old news. why is it currently reported here?– but it does demonstrate one important thing: other parts of this agreement can be changed — which is a good thing with new owners taking over soon . The PUD is not immutable but is amendable.

  2. The Town did request and received a reacknowledgment of Public Law No. 27 (The Annexation Orders from both the Special Annexation Court for Northampton County and the District Court of Northampton County) and from the State of Virginia Legislature cited as “Public Law 27 Order – entered into the land records of Northampton County Clerk’s Office in 1991, was re-enacted by the Virginia Legislature in March 2002, recorded in the Civil Common Law Order Book, page 619, also into the Northampton County Clerk’s Office “be enforced.’”

    Simply stated:

    These Annexation Agreements, which “run with the land” as well as various annexation proceedings and their exhibits were recorded in the land records of Northampton County as prescribed and enacted by both the Special Annexation Court for Northampton County and the Circuit Court of Northampton County on November 26, 1991, known as Public Law No. 27, (a Legislative Act) effective January 1, 1992 and re-enacted in March 2002.
