Henry County sets two-day land-use hearing schedule

Henry County residents have two consecutive days of public land-use hearings to track this week, covering commercial rezoning, apartment development and a proposed retail use.

At 6 p.m. Tuesday, June 23, the Board of Supervisors is scheduled to hear two rezoning cases. One covers about 5.676 acres at Fairystone Park Highway and Blackberry Road proposed for B-1 commercial zoning for RV and boat storage. The other covers about 1.726 acres on A.L. Philpott Highway proposed for B-1 commercial zoning for future commercial marketing.

At 1 p.m. Wednesday, June 24, the Board of Zoning Appeals is scheduled to consider a special-use permit for an additional apartment building with eight one-bedroom units between 328 and 380 Glasgow Drive in Ridgeway. A second case seeks permission for retail space in an accessory building at 4952 Chatham Road in the Iriswood District.

  • Where: Summerlin Meeting Room, Henry County Administration Building, 3300 Kings Mountain Road.
  • Why it matters: The cases could affect neighboring traffic, land use and future commercial or housing development.
  • Public action: Residents can review the applications through Planning, Zoning and Inspection and attend the hearings to comment.

Residents should confirm the final agenda before traveling because hearing order and meeting details can change.

Sources: Reporting based on Henry County's official June 23 rezoning hearing notice and June 24 Board of Zoning Appeals notice, checked June 21, 2026.
