🚨 🚨 STAFFORD KEEPS CHANGING ITS STORY AND THROWING ARGUMENTS AT THE WALL, HOPING SOMETHING WILL STICK.
First, Stafford insisted our by-right campground could only have tents.
But in the judges November 21, 2025 letter of opinion, the judge read Stafford’s ordinance and ruled:
“Clearly… uses other than tents are permitted.”
Look at this ➡️ If Stafford truly only wanted the Court to determine what the ordinance allowed, why wasn’t this resolved last year when the judge answered that question?
Why wasn’t Stafford satisfied? Because they didn’t want our campground for some NEFARIOUS reason and we’re desperate to stop it.
Instead, they MADE-UP another way to keep fighting us—claiming our lawsuit was filed 56 days too late.
In Stafford’s March 4, 2025 demurrer, it told the Court:
“The Application has not been disapproved and remains open with the Department.”
But in its August 28, 2025 Summary Judgment Motion, Stafford all at once changed its story and claimed unidentified (mystery) “County staff” denied our plan on October 7, 2024, saying the clock started on this date.
Yet the actual automated IWR system email sent that day (that they are using) never said DENIED or DISAPPROVED. It said:
“Your application is missing information.”
It even said:
“No problems identified on the review.”
The email was not issued by an identified, authorized agent. It never identified who supposedly denied our plan.
Virginia law says:
“The… agent shall act on any proposed… site plan… by either approving or disapproving the plan in writing.”
So where is the authorized agent’s written October 7 denial—and who actually denied our plan? Stafford is even having issues determining who their agent is. Does this sound like a CIRCUS 🤡🎪đźŽ
We all know who the agent was it was Michael Zuraff and he has mysteriously “Flown the Coop” this past month and is no longer the Planning Commission Director or AGENT. Stafford has brought in a new Planning Commission Director from Arizona.
🚨🚨 CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS IS WHY WE ARE GOING BACK TO COURT ON OCTOBER 19, 2026. ⚖️
The Court must decide whether Stafford can turn an automated “NEEDS INFORMATION ” email into an OFFICIAL DENIAL —and then use that disputed date to claim our lawsuit was 56 days late.
First it was Stafford’s INFAMOUS made-up “Tents Only” DEMAND.
Now it is a MYSTERY denial date and an (mystery) unidentified denier.
•How far is Stafford willing to go to stop this campground
•How many times will it change its story trying?
•Who all is involved and WHY?
đź“Ť Join us in court on October 19, 2026, at the Stafford County Courthouse, 1300 Courthouse Road, Stafford, VA 22554.
Come show your support and see Stafford answer for itself.
