The Spotsylvania County Board of Supervisors officially approved a performance agreement for Kalahari Resorts & Conventions, the company that is building a waterpark in Thornburg.
Following four public hearings Tuesday evening, the Spotsylvania County Board of Supervisors approved rezoning requests for four projects related to data center development.
The Spotsylvania Board of Supervisors approved more than $1.5 million to address COVID-19 needs for county schools this week, but rejected two other requests totaling nearly $865,000 after debating a change in its bylaws that threatened to block a vote on allocating the money.
The board juggled public safety bonuses and COVID-19 funding for schools and county staff during its meeting Tuesday. It tabled until its next meeting a proposal to provide bonuses for public safety workers who did not receive an earlier bonus mandated and funded by the state.
The board, however, approved over $1.5 million in COVID-19-related funding to purchase technology equipmentâsuch as computers and camerasâto help county government staff adjust to working in the pandemic. Staff reduced the initial funding request by about $350,000, leaving that amount to go into the general fund.
