Thank You, Park Board
The Gazette extends its warm congratulations and admiration to the volunteers on the Claudius Crozet Park board, and especially the committee that spearheaded fundraising for the new dome for the pool, for achieving a milestone that makes the park an even greater benefit to the town. Our thanks go, too, to all [...]]]></description>

The prospect of industrial zoning at the rural Interstate interchanges, most notably at the Crozet/Yancey Mills exit, has raised its snake-like head again as the County undertakes its usual processes for accomplishing purposes the public has already rejected. This idea and its implications were openly examined in public forums during the revision [...]]]></description>

The Gazette compliments Hook reporter Dave McNair for his investigative report on Schoolnet, a $1.72 million school administrative software program that school leaders admit is “glitchy” and teachers call a boondoggle, and on Albemarle County School Superintendent Pam Moran’s cozy relationship with the officers of the company who make it.

We note that a male, 140-pound cougar was killed by a car on a road in Milford, Connecticut, in June, where, just as here, wildlife officials assure us that this is an impossibility and claim that cougars are not found east of the Mississippi. When cougars were frequently spotted in our area and [...]]]></description>

The decision to pursue the old Rt. 29 bypass plan is a travesty of democratic process, from the Supervisors’ unannounced midnight vote to reopen a long dead issue to the virtual contempt shown to diligent citizens at the public hearing, and should raise everyone’s anxiety about the loyalty of our supervisors to the constituents [...]]]></description>

In a recent Board of Supervisors discussion over whether community advisory councils should be established in the Rivanna and 29 North growth areas, Rivanna District Supervisor Ken Boyd declared that the advisory councils–the one in Crozet and the more-recently created one for the Pantops growth area—were becoming another layer of “bureaucracy” [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Two serious defects in Albemarle County ordinances are at the root of current threats to Crozet neighborhoods such as Freetown and Blue Ridge Avenue. First, when a property is given grandfathered zoning, it should apply to the existing use that is the grounds for the grandfathering. The site of the proposed ReStore 'N Station formerly had a small ancient cabin on it housing a small engine repair shop, probably with a total of 400 square feet [...]]]></description>

The Crozet Volunteer Fire Department cancelled its Summerfest day, the occasion for the annual Crozet Fourth of July parade, opting instead to organize one for its 100th anniversary celebration set for Sept 18. It might have been better to set the anniversary celebration for Independence Day.
There has been a parade on the Fourth for [...]]]></description>
