Judge Rules Green Springs District Designation Improper
Louisa County circuit judge David Berry ruled the Virginia Historic Landmarks Commission acted improperly in designating about 14 000 acres as the Green Springs Historic District. The ruling voids much of the commission action from February 1973 amid controversy over a proposed diagnostic prison center. The case, brought by the Louisa Board of Supervisors and Green Springs landowners, argued no public hearing and potential value impact. Berry said the district action may affect future use and character, noted landowners must be heard and allowed to appeal, and indicated existing remedies are limited without owner consent. No immediate comment from the commission or attorney general.
