During the application process, I heard lots of comments from neighbors that Boxley needed to give back to the local Evington community. One idea we had was to offer Campbell County a lease agreement on the 135 acre residentially zoned land located on the eastern side of our property to build a multi-use park. This is just one idea!
Boxley is seeking other ideas on the use of this 135 acre tract. To help facilitate this communication process, Boxley would like to work with the Evington Community Association to determine what the neighbors of Evington would like us to do with this land. Could it be left in a low impact, natural state? Sure. Could we put some walking and biking trails on this property? A good topic for discussion. Does the community want a multi-use facility? I don’t know.
Boxley intends on working with the Evington Community Association and Campbell County to determine what is the most appropriate use for this land. We will meet with the leaders of the Evington Community Association early next year to discuss all options.
Boxley will listen to the desires of the community and determine what is the best mutually agreeable solution for the community, the County, and Boxley on the future of this land.
