Summary
Applicants David J. Flores Diaz and Ruby G. Hernandez Aquino asked to rezone a 1.1-acre parcel at 340 Bagwell Road from RS to R-20 to allow subdivision into two single-family lots; applicants said neighbors have been consulted and no opposition spoke at the hearing.
Property owners David J. Flores Diaz and Ruby G. Hernandez Aquino asked Greenville County to rezone a 1.1-acre parcel at 340 Bagwell Road from RS (Residential Suburban) to R-20 Single-Family Residential so the lot can be divided and two houses built, their son told the hearing.
The request matters to the family because the parents want to build a family compound with one house for themselves and a second for their son and his family. Daniel Flores said the change to R-20 would "allow us to divide the lot and be able to build both houses." He said neighbors had been consulted and were “okay” with the plan.
County staff noted the current RS zoning does not provide the acreage required to create two lots but that rezoning to R-20 would permit a two-unit division based on the parcel size. A council member asked whether rezoning to R-20 would allow more than two houses; staff responded that the rezoned parcel would allow two units.
No members of the public spoke in opposition at the hearing. The item was heard as an informational public hearing; no council votes were taken. If the council later approves rezoning, formal subdivision review and permitting would be required before construction could proceed.
