A field along Redwine Road familiar for its grazing cattle will soon be the site of more homes. At its May 23 meeting, the Fayette County Board of Commissioners voted 4-0-1 (with Eric Maxwell recused) to approve rezoning just over 30 acres on two parcels of land where Harris Road meets Redwine, adjacent to the Whitewater Creek subdivision.
The previously agricultural and residential tracts will be developed by the Rod Wright Corporation into 14 single-family residential lots; final plans will be reviewed at a later date. A historical home already on the site will remain. Although the initial application was to rezone the properties to R-70, county staff negotiated with the developer to make the new zoning R-72, which stipulates 2-acre lots and a minimum house size of 2,100 square feet.
The rezoning was determined to comply with Fayette’s land use plan.
