The proposed Fotheringay development returns to the Montgomery County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday after an error in the agenda for an October meeting. Supervisors were set to vote then after hearing from more than 30 people at a meeting that lasted past midnight, but the agenda item omitted 47 acres included in the rezoning request.

The amended agenda now includes the missing acreage. The rezoning still affects 263 acres, and the developer plans up to 349 homes on roughly 276 acres of the 659-acre property in Elliston, including 125 townhouses that opponents say are too dense for a rural village.

Speakers in October split on the project. One supporter called it planned growth that protects the area's history while keeping schools strong, and another said higher-priced homes could influence surrounding property values and future assessments. The Fotheringay item is listed as new business on Tuesday's agenda.
