I don’t have a problem with more development in this area. Although, I would like to see a plan to help with traffic flow during rush hours in the morning and evening. Main Street is becoming a very busy thoroughfare. Perhaps, divert traffic back towards Nine Mile Road or Brittons Road with an entrance onto Interstate 64 at Brittons Road.

UPDATE: Developer Lou Salomonsky has requested a 30 day delay for his rezoning requests for 2801 and 2825 East Main Street at the request of the Church Hill Association and Scenic Virginia, to allow for discussion of the details of his proposal.
