Board approves Wawa sign exception, school and county carry-forwards and other routine motions
Summary
At its Oct. 14, 2025 meeting, the New Kent County Board of Supervisors approved an exception to signage rules for a proposed Wawa, authorized a lease with Rappahannock Community College, approved multiple school and county carry-forward appropriations and passed several procedural motions, all by recorded roll call votes.
New Kent County Board of Supervisors convened Oct. 14, 2025, in the County Administration Building boardroom and approved a set of resolutions and motions including a sign exception for a proposed Wawa fueling station, lease authorization for Rappahannock Community College, school grant carry-forwards, and a large county carry-forward appropriation.
The most significant votes were unanimous among members present. Supervisors in attendance — Ms. Pearson, Ms. Stewart, John Moyer and Mr. Evelyn — voted aye on each motion as recorded; Supervisor Steers was absent for roll calls noted in the transcript.
