Stanley Martin Homes’ “ReTreat at One” development received zoning approval from Henrico supervisors last week. The nearly 500-home development is planned for about 65 acres straddling Telegraph Road near its intersection with Georgia Avenue off Brook Road.
Stanley Shield Partnership, which is redeveloping parts of the Brookfield Commons office complex at 6600 W. Broad St., received zoning approval for restaurant, retail and office uses on 1.6 acres at the northeast corner of Broad and Dickens Road.
The board also approved an agreement with The First Tee of Greater Richmond for lease, operation and maintenance of Belmont Golf Course and adjacent property at 7202 Brook Road. The 20-year lease with potential five-year renewals involves the county contributing $750,000 for renovating the golf course after First Tee has put at least $3.25 million into an escrow account for renovations.
