Louisa County saw its population dip below 11,000 residents after the 2020 census. With that shrinking number comes a shrinking tax base as well. It's why supporters of the sale, including Louisa County Conservation Board Member Josh Hardin, say the money is needed on other projects.
Despite being one of the board's most vocal advocates for the sale, Hardin did not respond to a request for comment on the matter.
Namely, the board would like to see 22 new campsites added to Virginia Grove, a nearby park. The county already has 11 plots for campers at the location, but would like to expand as well as install a bathhouse with new showers and toilets.
