Supervisors adopt six-year secondary road plan; Cabin Pond may be added as priority later
Summary
By motion, the board accepted the presented six-year secondary road plan for Southampton County (Delaware Road, Waller Road, Farmers Bridal Road) and discussed adding Cabin Pond to the list later via a resolution and public hearing if the board designates it a priority.
County staff read the Virginia code governing six-year secondary highway plans and presented the county's list of proposed improvements. The list shown for the county includes Delaware Road, Waller Road and Farmers Bridal Road; staff noted the list contains no new money this year so no public hearing is required unless new funding exceeding $100,000 is added.
Supervisors discussed Cabin Pond Road, and staff said it meets the traffic threshold (more than 50 vehicles per day) to be a candidate for the list; adding Cabin Pond as a project would require designating it as a priority and would trigger advertising for a public hearing.
A motion was made and seconded to accept the list as presented. The board voted to adopt the current construction project list as presented and directed staff that Cabin Pond could be added later if the board chose to designate it as a priority and follow the required public-notice procedures.
Next steps: staff will advertise the project list and schedule associated public hearings if the board changes the priority order or elects to add Cabin Pond as a listed project.
