Board approves two rezoning requests affecting Reidsville and Haines Road areas
Summary
The Rockingham County Board of Commissioners approved two conventional rezoning requests on Nov. 17: case 2025-12 (RA to Highway Commercial for 173 Allen Road) and case 2025-13 (Neighborhood Commercial to Residential Agriculture for 120 Haines Road). Planning recommended approval for both and no members of the public spoke.
Adam Barr, a county planner, presented two conventional rezoning requests to the board on Nov. 17.
Case 2025-12 proposed rezoning property addressed as 173 Allen Road (tax parcel 891307688521) from Residential Agriculture (RA) to Highway Commercial. Barr said the planning board recommended approval at its October meeting and staff found the request reasonable given nearby, more intense zoning districts. Commissioner Richardson moved approval; Commissioner Kellum seconded and the board approved the motion by voice vote.
Case 2025-13 proposed rezoning 120 Haines Road (tax parcel 793104833120) from Neighborhood Commercial to Residential Agriculture. Barr said the planning board unanimously recommended approval. No one from the public signed up to speak for either hearing. Commissioner Barrow moved approval of case 2025-13, Commissioner McKellum seconded, and the board approved by voice vote.
Both matters were processed as conventional rezoning requests — meaning the board was asked to consider all uses permitted under the requested district rather than a site-specific conditional plan — and the planning board recommendation was cited in both presentations. The board opened and closed the hearings with no public speakers recorded.
