For the first time since the 1990s, Stonehenge Golf & Country Club is fully in control of its own destiny. The private, member-owned club at 1000 Furnham Drive in Chesterfield County recently brought its day-to-day management back in-house after breaking away from third-party golf course management giant Invited Clubs. The move, which received overwhelming member support in a vote, means that all business decisions related to the club are now handled by its board of directors and general manager.

A Northside building that in recent years has been used for making beer will soon house a very different kind of manufacturing. The owners of Anytime Beer Co. earlier this month sold the brewery’s building at 704 Dawn St. to Ralco Medical Components Inc. for $1 million. Anytime, formerly known as Tabol Brewing, ceased operations in the 7,900-square-foot building this spring ahead of the building’s sale, while the brewery’s owners search for a new place to continue operating.

One of Shockoe Slip’s longest-running restaurants has quietly closed its doors. Sam Miller’s at 1210 E. Cary St. recently ceased operations after 53 years in business. Throughout the spring the oyster bar and restaurant was open sporadically, at one point posting signage on its front door that it was closed “due to circumstances beyond our control.” The closure became permanent in recent weeks. Sam Miller’s was owned by Ken Wall, who couldn’t be reached for comment.

If approved, data centers would be strictly a conditional use in Chesterfield. Currently, data centers can be built by-right in some zoning districts, meaning that they don’t require a review by the Board of Supervisors to be built under those areas’ current zoning.
