What will be the fate of growth restrictions imposed over the past 4 years in Loudoun County, Virginia?
"When Loudoun County voters on Tuesday abandoned the leadership they had elected four years ago to slow the county's growth, they demonstrated more than just a change of heart. They revealed a county deeply divided by party, ideology and, most notably, geography.""In the populous eastern side of the county near Dulles International Airport, voters elected six Republican candidates who promised to reverse or relax tight restrictions on home building imposed by the current board. Those voters complained that the board's efforts to slow the march of subdivisions in rural western Loudoun had essentially come at the expense of their more-crowded communities. "
