Consider adopting a resolution and ordinance approving a boundary line adjustment between the City of Harrisonburg and Rockingham County.

Recommendation and Review

An existing business on Carpenter Lane is located on property that is partly in the City and partly in the County. This Resolution and Ordinance would authorize a petition to the Circuit Court to adjust the boundary line of the City to move the City portion of the property on Carpenter Lane into the County. In exchange, the City and County will petition for another boundary line adjustment to bring the City-owned property on Smithland Road and used for parks and recreation into the City.
