NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING ON PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO CONDITIONAL ZONING DISTRICT

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
ON PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO CONDITIONAL
ZONING DISTRICT
(Conditional Zoning District Amendment, CD-2020-02-A1, Horseshoe Farm)
The Henderson County Board of Commissioners will hold a public hearing for a proposed map amendment to the Official Zoning Map of Henderson County, North Carolina.

An application for an amendment to Conditional Zoning District CD-2020-02, was initiated on January 5, 2026. The applicant, Sen-Asheville 1, LLC seeks to amend the existing conditional zoning district (consisting of REID’s 10009792, 10006902, 9962163, 10006904, 10006903, 10009793, 10009794, and 10009795), and rezone all of REIDs 10006907, 10006906, 108467, 10014490, 10014489, 10014488, 10002956, 10002957, and 10002958 from a Residential Two (R2) zoning district to the existing conditional zoning district. If approved, the Conditional Zoning District as amended would become CD-2020-02-A1.

The applicant is proposing to amend the master plan to add a new building for administration purposes, relocate the RV area, and change the internal road configuration to include a third entrance onto South Rugby Road. The new portion of the subject area proposed to be rezoned to the conditional zoning district consists of 9 residential lots, 5 of those currently containing single-family residential structures. The remaining 4 lots are proposed for single-family residential structures, and the amendment would allow for a new internal road for these residential lots to directly access the Horseshoe Farm amenities.

The public hearing will be held on Wednesday, March 18, 2026, at 9:30 AM., in the Board of Commissioners Meeting Room located in the Henderson County Historic Courthouse, at 1 Historic Courthouse Square, in Hendersonville, NC. The public is invited to attend and comment on the proposed amendment.

Written comments addressed to the Henderson County Board of Commissioners, 1 Historic Courthouse Square, Suite 1, Hendersonville, NC 28792, will be accepted prior to the hearing. Information about the proposed amendment is available for review in the Henderson County Planning Department, 100 N. King Street, Hendersonville, NC, between the hours of 8:00 A.M. and 4:30 P.M., Monday through Friday, or on the Henderson County Website hcplanning.org. For more information, call the Planning Department at (828) 697-4819.

Please note that after considering public hearing comments, the Board of Commissioners may discuss other options or make changes to the proposed amendments before taking final action. The Henderson County Comprehensive Plan will be updated and amended, as necessary, to reflect the action of the Board of Commissioners.
