Board defers industrial‑park rezoning to May 2026 amid enforcement questions
The Board of Supervisors voted to defer action on rezoning case RZ2025‑0003, filed by Big Daddy's Oilville Land Holding Corporation, until the board’s May 2026 meeting to allow staff time to address proffer enforcement across the industrial park.

Ray Cash, assistant director of community development, told the board the applicant requested a deferral. Evan Weiner, representing Big Daddy's Oilville Land Holding Corporation, said the company was “fine with October” and ultimately agreed to the longer deferral. Supervisor discussion framed the deferral as an opportunity to assess proffers and ensure consistent treatment of all businesses in the park.

Why it matters: the applicant said it has outgrown its current facility and is seeking to relocate within the county’s industrial park. Supervisors said some proffers dating from the 1980s are not being consistently enforced across park occupants, which complicates requirements such as screening for new or expanding businesses. Aware of competing interests — enforcing proffers to protect community expectations versus allowing a locally based business to grow — supervisors asked staff to review enforcement options and whether to require applicants to add screening or instead modify existing proffers uniformly.

Board action: Supervisor moved, seconded and the board agreed by roll call to defer the rezoning request to the May 2026 board meeting. The motion was supported by supervisors who emphasized the need to work with the applicant and other park occupants so enforcement is consistent and business‑friendly.

Next steps: staff will review the park’s proffers, evaluate enforcement and potential remedies, and report back to the board prior to the May 2026 hearing so the board can consider either enforcement action or proffer modification that applies uniformly to all park properties.

Ending: The applicant agreed to a May 2026 deferral; supervisors asked staff to prepare recommendations that balance consistent enforcement with support for local business growth.
