Summary

Council approved rezoning for about 12.45 acres at 1232 West Queen Street from single‑family to a mix of neighborhood commercial (frontage) and MD‑4 for townhouses (rear), with proffers limiting commercial uses, sidewalk connections, building materials, and a townhouse cap of 90–114 units.

The City of Hampton on Aug. 14 approved a rezoning application (24‑0329) submitted by Trilogy Developers LLC to rezone roughly 12.45 acres at 1232 West Queen Street and adjacent parcels to allow a mixed commercial frontage and townhouse development behind it.

Planning manager Mike Case told council the request would carve a front parcel (about 0.75 acre) to C‑1 (neighborhood commercial) for uses such as a restaurant, daycare or retail and rezone the rear portion to MD‑4 to permit townhouses on fee‑simple lots. Staff and the planning commission recommended approval with roughly 13 proffered conditions: limiting the allowed commercial uses, requiring pedestrian and sidewalk connections to the adjacent Trilogy 1 project, proffering exterior building materials consistent with Trilogy 1, and capping the number of townhouses between 90 and 114 (final unit count to be determined by engineering and BMP requirements). Applicant Ross Fiera confirmed each townhouse would provide on‑site parking (two spaces per unit were confirmed in council questions). Council moved to approve with the recommended conditions and the motion passed.

The rezoning was presented in the context of the larger Trilogy redevelopment of Lincoln Park and was characterized by staff as generally consistent with the community plan’s intended mix of uses and densities for the corridor.
