Hanover County is under threat.
Luck Stone wants to develop a large-scale gravel quarry, asphalt plant and concrete plant on Verdon Road in Hanover County, Virginia. This proposed quarry will destroy nearly 1,300 acres of woodlands and wetlands that is currently zoned as rural/agricultural and natural conservation. The site abuts farms and residences, and encompasses a large portion of the Little River. Help us save our homes, lives and community by saying NO to this development!
