While waiting on development opportunities, Chance cut limber to help repay the loan it took out to buy the land. On March 2, Washam county commission proposed an ordinance to establish a 250-foot-wide greenway along the south side of the potomac that will effectively ban both development and timbering on nearly 80 acres of Chance's land.
