A Master Plan for Courthouse Village - College of Humanities and ...

Goal 1: The center of Courthouse Village offers a concentration
of small-scale, compatible, mixed uses
Objective 1.1: Offices and retail establishments will exist in the mixed-use
commercial core along route 6/522 in the center of the Village
Objective 1.2: A combination of single and multi-family residential dwelling units
(between 2.5 – 10 units per acre) will exist in the center of the Village
Objective 1.3: Public spaces, such as plazas and parks, will exist in the center
of the Village and provide congregation points for residents, workers and visitors
Implementation
Goochland County Planning staff should petition the Planning Commission to
make amendments to the County’s Comprehensive Plan, present a new “Village
Core” zoning classification, which allows for a mix of residential and commercial
uses, greater densities and incorporates design guidelines, to the Board of
Supervisors and request the rezoning within the Village area to accommodate
these uses.
Timeline: June 2006 – December 2006
Goal 2: Development surrounding the Village center supports
and enhances the Village Core
Objective 2.1: The Village center will be maintained as a primary, shopping and
employment location within the Village; additional commercial and office centers
built outside the Village core are limited
Implementation
Goochland County Planning staff should petition the Planning Commission to
recommend to the Board of Supervisors the adoption of zoning, which will limit
areas zoned as traditional commercial. B-1 and B-2 commercial zoning should
be limited to areas in accordance with the land use pattern designated on this
Future Land Use map.
Timeline: June 2006 – December 2006
Objective 2.2: Planned Unit Developments will exist near to the Village Center
and offer additional residential capacity close to the core, thereby providing
additional retail and commercial demand
