Summary

Charles White will seek a public hearing after the planning commission voted to forward his request to operate short‑term rentals (Airbnb/bed‑and‑breakfast) and occasional on‑site events up to 40 attendees at a renovated 5‑bedroom farmhouse on Scottsbottom Road (case 25SUP365).

Charles White told the planning commission he intends to operate a five‑bedroom farmhouse (2477 Scottsbottom Road, ~3 acres, A‑1 zoning) as short‑term rentals/bed‑and‑breakfast and to permit small, on‑site gatherings of up to 30–40 people using the adjacent yard or barn area. VDOT reportedly reviewed the entrance and staff said no immediate VDOT objections were in the filing.

Commissioners asked about parking capacity and whether the site can safely accommodate events; the applicant said there is ample on‑site parking and no regular schedule of events was planned, although occasional family gatherings and small events could occur. The commission voted to forward the request to a public hearing for additional public input and board consideration.
