The public hearing for CUP 24-01 was originally scheduled for June 10, 2025 but was postponed allowing for additional negotiations to further strengthen the conditions and host agreement terms related to the project.

The public comment period, once opened, will have an allotted time of two hours in which speakers can comment on the project within the standard three-minute timeframe.

 

All speakers are required to sign up to speak and must provide their name and full address.  Cumberland residents and landowners will speak first. Powhatan County residents and landowners may speak after all Cumberland residents and landowners have spoken, within the two-hour allotted timeframe.
