The area outlined above could become part of Urbanna if boundary line adjustments are approved. The gray parking area and buildings are where Urbanna Lumber was once located. The round structure in the upper left corner is the town’s water tower. The Urbanna firehouse is visible along Virginia Street in the lower right corner. The field behind the fire house could be part of the boundary adjustment, pending approval by the Middlesex Volunteer Fire Department.

The Town of Urbanna could gain some land through a proposal by Barbara and John Mullins of Urbanna who are seeking to move Urbanna’s western border to make their neighboring parcels part of the town.
The Mullinses’ corporation Thurston Properties LLC owns about five acres along Urbanna’s western border that are not in the town limits. The Mullinses’ parcels include land where Urbanna Lumber was once located.
