GIS presentation maps Route 60 corridor and highlights available parcels

Powhatan County committee · January 22, 2025

Summary

Presenters used GIS layers to show zoning, thoroughfares and a two‑thousand foot gateway band along Route 60, identified developed vs. undeveloped parcels, and discussed layers showing commercial, I‑1 (light industrial), RU, R2 and R5 areas.

A GIS demonstration showed committee members a layered map of the Route 60 corridor, including a 2,000‑foot "gateway" band, thoroughfares (collector and arterial classifications), and existing zoning overlays.

The presenter (speaker 8) displayed developed parcels (blue), zoned commercial parcels (red hatch), and A‑10/rural parcels that could be candidates for future conversion. The presenter noted roughly 397 parcels fall within the corridor band in the initial inventory and that the maps can be published as PDF or embedded web viewers for public access. Committee members asked staff to prepare clearer parcel lists and to examine adjacency to residential areas before recommending specific zoning shifts.
