Chesterfield board to vote on Spring Rock Green redevelopment
The Chesterfield Board of Supervisors is scheduled to meet Wednesday. Full agenda here.
The supervisors are expected to vote on final approval of the county-initiated project to construct a mixed-use development on the site of the Spring Rock Green shopping center.
The rezoning and conditional-use application would tee up the redevelopment of the 42-acre site owned by the county’s economic development authority. The site would eventually be home to more than 1,000 apartments, a 215-room hotel, 300,000 square feet of office space and 125,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space. There are also plans for a two-rink ice hockey venue.
The county recently announced it has picked Connecticut-based Collins Enterprises to develop the first phase of the site.
Also on the agenda is a Markel-Eagle Advisors LLC project to build a 200-lot subdivision of age-restricted homes on a 100-acre site. The proposed Parke at Cold Creek development would be built on Otterdale Road to the north of its intersection with Duval Road and south of the Westerleigh subdivision.
Proposed tech park recommended by Chesterfield Planning Commission
The Chesterfield Planning Commission voted last week to recommend approval of rezoning cases tied to the development of 2,400 acres near Moseley. About 1,700 acres would be occupied by a proposed technology park as well as public facilities. The other 700 acres would be the site of hundreds of single-family homes and additional public facilities.
Commissioners also advanced a proposal by Stanley Martin Homes to redevelop the Rockwood shopping center and Rockwood Golf Park into a residential development.
Both projects will be considered by the Board of Supervisors for final approval at a future meeting.
Hanover planning commissioners defer Rogers-Chenault project
The Hanover Planning Commission voted last week to defer a proposal by Rogers-Chenault to build a 250-lot subdivision on a 155-acre site located near Winns Church Road and Greenwood Road, in keeping with a staff recommendation to do so.
The rezoning request tied to the project was deferred to allow the applicant to address traffic concerns.
The commissioners voted to recommend approval of a rezoning requested by Markel-Eagle Advisors LLC to build a 28-unit condominium development between the Marley Point subdivision and Hanover Crossing Apartments. The condominiums would be detached units and would be built on a 6-acre site. The request now goes to the Board of Supervisors for final approval.
Fulton Yard apartments financing on Henrico agenda
Henrico supervisors meet in regular session Tuesday at 7 p.m. Full agenda here. Business on the agenda includes a resolution related to Virginia Housing financing of a proposed 60-unit apartment complex within Zimmer Development Co.’s planned Fulton Yard development.
The financing would require at least 20 percent of the units to be leased to renters earning no more than 80 percent of the county’s median income. The developer is also proffering that 10 percent of the units would be leased to households at 80 percent of the area median income, and the rental rate for those units would be 20 percent below the rate of comparable units within the development.
Richmond 300 amendments, casino-related tax items on council agenda
The Richmond City Council meets in regular session Monday at 6 p.m. Full agenda available here.
Business on the agenda includes a request by a majority of councilmembers to make amendments to the Richmond 300 master plan. The changes would identify the city’s subsidized housing communities – Creighton Court, Fairfield Court, Gilpin Court, Hillside Court, Mosby Court North and South, and Whitcomb Court – as priority growth nodes in the plan.
Other business includes a resolution supporting a 2-cent reduction of the city’s real estate tax rate should a second voter referendum on the One Casino + Resort project pass, and designating funds for public schools and infrastructure projects.
A separate resolution would appropriate one-third of revenues from the casino project to a reserve fund for schools, to supplant an anticipated $7.2 million decrease in state funding.
