_____________________________________________________________________ Public Utilities Above, data from Stafford County Utilities is deemed reliable, but NOT guaranteed; it is an approximation. Overall, the Subject tract is about 3.4/ mile or so from public utilities. BEST course of action is to wait for the developer of a very large project to bring the utilities up to his project and hence, near the Subject Tract. Also, the developer of the 16 acres next to Subject would have to bring the utilities up to make that project work. Good news is that the Subject tract is in the Urban Development Area, which allows for the extension of public utilities.
