The Middlesex County Economic Development Authority purchased 21 acres in Deltaville for $1 million, securing public access to Broad Creek while leaving the adjacent Norview Marina under private ownership. The land will serve as the foundation for “Project Access,” which aims to build a public boat ramp, docks, and parking, while creating a marine industrial park and workforce training programs in partnership with the Virginia Community College system. The purchase was funded through a $1 million, 25-year county loan with no payments due for the first two years, allowing time to pursue grants and infrastructure improvements.
