Planning commission backs rezoning to allow two residential lots on Gold Mine Road
Summary
The commission recommended approval of a request to rezone a parcel on Gold Mine Road from A‑1 to R‑1, allowing two 2‑acre lots by family subdivision; neighbors and the property owner spoke during the public hearing.
The Fluvanna County Planning Commission held a public hearing on ZMP 2505, a rezoning request for tax parcel 50‑A‑129D on Gold Mine Road, and recommended approval.
Staff explained the request would change the parcel from A‑1 agricultural general to R‑1 residential limited, permitting the creation of two 2‑acre lots through the family subdivision process. The parcel lies in the rural residential planning area; staff noted public water is available in the sanitary district and that new lots that require water service would be required to connect.
The property owner and neighbors spoke in support, describing the parcel’s existing wooded character and low traffic counts on Gold Mine Road. Commissioners discussed frontage requirements, connection to the public water system and development impacts. After a motion and second, the commission approved the recommendation by voice vote.
The commission’s recommendation will be forwarded to the Board of Supervisors for final action.
