Today the Mason County Commissioners voted unanimously to approve the rezoning of the three parcels of land intended for The Ridge Motorsports Park from Rural Residential 20 to the required RTC designation. An amazing 300 people showed up in support of “Racing In Mason County”, while only two people showed up against rezone. (Both, however, testified that as nearby residential property owners they were very much in favor of a race facility — just not in their backyard. Their testimony was countered by other neighbors in favor of the rezone.)
After the Commissioners meeting, Rod and Joe from The Ridge Motorsports Group gave a tour of the site and hosted a pizza lunch. (Thanks guys!!!)
The next (and final big) step is to apply and set a hearing for the required Special Use Permit, which is decided by an independent Special Hearings Examiner. The date and time of this hearing will be posted when it is determined.
