A motion to deny a requested rezoning for a 2.92-acre parcel at 7 White Horse Road Extension was moved during the Greenville County Planning and Development Committee meeting on Oct. 6, 2025; the motion was recorded as failed.
The parcel, described by planning staff as vacant land at the intersection of Donaldson Road and White Horse Road Extension, is currently zoned C2 (Commercial). The applicant, Matthew Christian on behalf of Leonardo Fernandez of Lafibbe Contracting Corporation, asked to rezone the site to S1 (Services District) for use as boat and RV storage. Planning staff advised that a rezoning to S1 would not be consistent with the South Greenville area plan and could allow uses incompatible with nearby residential properties; staff recommended denial.
Chair and committee members discussed the staff recommendation. A motion to deny was moved; the transcript records the chair asking “All in favor?” and several members saying “Aye,” followed by the chair saying, “So this motion has failed.” The transcript does not record any subsequent formal motion to approve, nor does it record a final approved rezoning decision.
Because the meeting transcript records the motion’s failure but does not document any further action on CZ-2025-061, the rezoning status after the meeting is not specified in the record.
Staff presentation: planning staff summarized the site, surrounding zoning, and the staff recommendation to deny based on inconsistency with the South Greenville area plan and potential incompatibility with nearby residences.
Votes at the meeting: a motion to deny the rezoning was moved and recorded as failed in the transcript; no vote tally with member names is recorded in the transcript.
What’s next: The transcript does not record any subsequent motion or formal approval; further action (if any) is not specified in the meeting record.
