Summary
Lexington County Council approved Ordinance 25‑0202 to rezone property near Garden Valley Lane from R‑1 (low‑density residential) to RD (restrictive development) at the Feb. 24 meeting; the vote was unanimous.
Lexington County Council approved Ordinance 25‑0202 on Feb. 24, rezoning property near Garden Valley Lane from R‑1 (low‑density residential) to RD (restrictive development) at the request of the Chapin Recreation Commission.
Chair Hudson read the ordinance into the record, which identified the applicant and listed tax map numbers for the parcels involved. The ordinance language states the map amendment is warranted by changed conditions and that the rezoning will serve the general welfare of the county.
A council member moved to approve the rezoning and a second was recorded. The clerk then called the roll; Cullum, Conwell, Kerig, Wessinger, Fisher, Brigham, Bishop, Vice chair Cockrell and Chairman Hudson each voted “Yes,” and the ordinance was approved.
The ordinance text included specific tax map references and a clause repealing any conflicting county ordinances. No public opposition or additional testimony on the item was recorded in the meeting minutes.
The council’s action will allow development under RD provisions for the cited parcels; staff noted the change will be reflected in county records and the planning department will process implementation steps.
