BRISTOW, Va. — A proposal to Prince William County to issue a special use permit to the All Dulles Area Muslim Association for it to build a mosque in the county’s Rural Crescent will head to the planning commission for the first time.
We wrote about proposed worship center last month. Prince William County Planning Manager Steve Donohoe told us the plans for this mosque have been under review for longer than usual when compared to other proposed projects in the county.
Here’s an update Brentsville District Supervisor Jeanine Lawson sent to her constituents today about the mosque:
The Special Use Permit for the All Dulles Area Muslim Society (ADAMS) land use proposal is scheduled to be heard by the Prince William County Planning Commission (see below). The commission is a panel of eight citizens appointed by the Board of County Supervisors (BOCS) to advise the Board on land use and development issues. All land use applications are first deliberated by the commission who will make a formal recommendation to the BOCS. The application is then scheduled for a public hearing before the Board of County Supervisors for the final decision.
