Sewage-related problems

The Fauquier County government's vision for Calverton is, "Calverton will be a small rural village centered within an agricultural community. It will be a livable community with a balance of residential and non-residential development surrounded by open space and preserved wildlife." The county established less ambitious goals for Calverton's growth due to the challenges it faced in trying to deal with failed and failing septic drain fields in Calverton by providing public sewers.[3]
