Commission grants 30-day deferral for rezoning request RZ25-0005; applicant to provide traffic info
Summary
The planning commission accepted an applicant request to defer rezoning case RZ25-0005 to Oct. 23 so staff can review additional materials, including a traffic assessment. The motion passed by roll call; staff had received the report late and the applicantrepresented by counsel said they would provide the additional documents.
The Prince George County Planning Commission on Sept. 25 voted to accept an applicantrequest to defer consideration of rezoning application RZ25-0005 until Oct. 23, 2025, so that the applicant can submit additional materials for staff review, including engineering and traffic information.
In the hearing record, the applicantwas represented for the rezoning matter by attorney Will Shumack of the law firm Wood Rogers. Shumack told the commission that the staff report had been received late and that the applicant would provide additional information, including an engineering review of traffic and contact with VDOT, and asked the commission to defer the rezoning item 30 days. The commissionvoted on a motion to accept the applicant's request; a roll-call vote recorded in the transcript showed all commissioners present voting yes.
Why this matters: a deferral allows staff and the applicant to resolve outstanding technical questions before the commission makes a recommendation to the Board of Supervisors. The commissionmakes only advisory recommendations on rezoning; any final decision will be made by the Board at a future public hearing.
What happens next: the applicant said it would submit the requested materials quickly. The rezoning case RZ25-0005 is scheduled to return to the commission on Oct. 23, 2025, per the deferral motion.
