Planners delay development to locate cemetery graves near Woodville
The Credence County Framing Commission unanimously delays a preliminary plat for a 302 unit housing project at the southwest corner of Glissans Mill and Woodville roads to allow time to identify possible gravesites near Woodville Cemetery. Residents fear a road and housing could threaten cemetery boundaries and historic sites tied to Freedmen’s Bureau. Local officials note planning rights cannot stop the project, while neighbors urge caution to protect an adjacent horse farm and access to the cemetery.
