Planning commission recommends denial of South Creek Village comprehensive plan amendment and rezoning after hours of public comment
Summary
After a lengthy public comment period and staff briefing, the Powhatan County Planning Commission voted 3–2 to recommend denial of a request to amend the 2021 comprehensive plan and to deny rezoning of 26.8 acres for a 92–99‑unit village‑style residential/commercial development known as South Creek Village.
The Powhatan County Planning Commission voted to recommend denial of a concurrent comprehensive plan amendment and rezoning application for a proposed South Creek Village development on roughly 26.8 acres off Batterson/Patterson Road.
Planning staff described the proposal as a concurrent comprehensive plan amendment (case 24‑17) and rezoning (case 24‑16) that would change the site’s designation from Gateway Business to Neighborhood Residential and rezone from A‑10 to a Village Center Planned Development (VCPD). The applicant proposed a master plan with up to 99 residential units in three phases, approximately 9.5 acres of open space, internal trails and a 2.5‑acre commercial pad that would revert to residential if no commercial permit is pulled within three years.
