Summary

The Waynesboro Historic Preservation Commission reviewed a concept Jan. 28 for 20 small "work force" homes at 417 E. 7th Street, each intended to cost under $225,000; the project could require rezoning and would undergo full Commission review if permits move forward.

The Waynesboro Historic Preservation Commission heard Jan. 28 about a concept plan for 20 small "work force" homes proposed for 417 E. 7th Street.

Don Lively, the city staff member listed for the commission, said the lot owner has approached the city with the plan and intends to keep sale prices under $225,000. Lively told commissioners the concept could require rezoning; if the owner secures the necessary permits and rezoning approvals, the project will come back for a full review by the Commission.

Commissioners did not take a formal vote on the concept at the meeting. The discussion at the Jan. 28 meeting was limited to an initial presentation of the idea and procedural notes about permitting and review. No funding sources, construction timeline or definitive site plan were provided in the record.

The proposal, if it advances, would change the land-use requirements for the lot and trigger the commission's formal review process. The commission did not set a date for any follow-up review during the Jan. 28 session.
