New Kent supervisors to vote on 120-acre ‘Liberty Landing’ development
Virginia Beach-based developer Boyd Homes is seeking zoning approval for a proposed development with a mix of uses that would rise on about 120 acres in the western part of New Kent County.
The New Kent Board of Supervisors is slated to vote on whether to OK the rezoning request tied to the project, which is being called Liberty Landing, at its meeting on Monday (today).
The proposal includes 60,000 square feet of commercial uses, 145 for-sale townhomes and 145 single-family lots, according to a staff memo. The commercial uses would be situated on about 16 acres of the project area. Anticipated development of the commercial area includes restaurants, retailers and offices.
The project also includes open spaces, recreational areas, clubhouses and walking trails.
A transportation analysis recommends road improvements such as new turn lanes on Route 60.
Proffers include payments to the county of $8,000 per single-family detached home and $4,000 per condo. Also included is $500,000 for the creation of a new traffic signal if needed, per the staff memo.
Boyd Homes is seeking to rezone the largely undeveloped project site in the Bottoms Bridge area to Planned Unit Development from its current mixture of business and agricultural zoning. The project site is across from the Five Lakes subdivision.
The New Kent Planning Commission recommends approval of the request. The meeting’s full agenda can be found here.

Cary St.
Also on the agenda is a special-use request for a five-story, 60-unit apartment building planned at 1401-1407 Hull St., and authorization of a grant agreement and purchase option between the city and Salvation Army to fund construction of its Center of Hope long-term shelter at 1900 Chamberlayne Ave.
