More zoning silliness at Virginia wineries

Aug 17, 2012 0 Replies

"Fauquier's [county] Board of Supervisors recently passed a winery ordinance that tramples private property rights and some fundamental civil liberties... [The new ordinance] forces wineries to close at 6 p.m. and prohibits sale of food -- something that goes quite safely with a taste of wine -- unless the wineries obtain special permits from the zoning administrator...The ordinance lists prohibited winery activities such as hot air balloon rides, farmers' markets, and mini-golf, which assuredly threaten the health, safety and welfare of the public.
