    Gum Springs is already built up. Not sure where these "original members" live, but it's all townhomes, apartments and homes built all around there. I'm not sure the exact location of these 214 acres but people often get paid for sale of the land. It's pretty much up to who owns the property. But if you wanted to 'save' the land you should have stopped the 10,000 townhouses they already put up. 🤷‍♀️

    I believe that historic sites need to be protected, but we all know that the democrats of northern VA care more about tax revenue than anything else.
