Weather forecast:
• Herndon considers creating zoning rules for casinos - Herndon considers creating zoning rules for casinos (ffxnow.com) — Herndon officials are weighing new zoning rules that would allow a casino only as part of a large mixed-use project near the Herndon Metro station. The Planning Commission is reviewing draft requirements now so the town is prepared if future state legislation ever lets Fairfax County host casino gaming.
• Sheetz convenience store planned for Lincolnia (annandaletoday.com) — Herndon’s only Sheetz remains the chain’s sole Fairfax County location as the company pursues a new convenience store and gas station in Lincolnia, where two office buildings would be demolished. County planners are reviewing a Comprehensive Plan Amendment and special exception, and the developer hopes for approval within a year, potentially signaling more Sheetz expansion that could eventually affect Herndon-area drivers and commuters.
