Discussion
Parcel/Area Characteristics
The parcels have frontage along Broad River Road and Mount Vernon Church Road. There are
no sidewalks or streetlights along these sections of Kennerly Road or Mount Vernon Church
Road. Broad River Road is a two-lane minor arterial with limited sidewalks and streetlights along
this section. The parcels are undeveloped. The immediate area is characterized by residential
uses of a rural nature with some undeveloped parcels in the vicinity, with the immediate area
zoned RU. There are larger institutional uses to the west.
Public Services
The Spring Hill/White Rock fire station (station number 21) is located at 11809 Broad River Road,
approximately 1.35 miles northwest of the subject parcel. The Spring Hill High School is located
west of the subject parcels on Broad River Road. Records indicate that the parcel is located within
the City of Columbia’s water service area. Records also indicate that the parcel is located within
Richland County’s sewer service area.
Being within a service area is not a guarantee that services are available to the parcel.
Traffic Characteristics
The 2022 SCDOT traffic count (Station #178) located southeast of the subject site on Broad River
Road identifies 10,600 ADTs. This section of Broad River Road is classified as at two-lane minor
arterial with a design capacity of 10,800 ADTs. This segment of Broad River Road is currently
operating at a Level of Service (LOS) “C”.
26
The ADTs are the total volume of traffic passing a point on a roadway during a 24-hour period.
ADTs data is collected by SCDOT.
There is a rehab & resurfacing project along this section of Broad River Road currently under
construction through SCDOT. There are no projects through the County Penny Sales Tax
program.
Conclusion
The proposed rezoning meets the objectives and desired development pattern of the
Comprehensive Plan for the Neighborhood (Low-Density) future land use designation. The
proposed request permits residential uses of an intensity and scale that would be in character
with the Comprehensive Plan’s recommendations.
At their June 5, 2023 meeting, the Richland County Planning Commission voted 4-to-4 for RC
Project # 23-017 MA. A tie vote for motions regarding recommendations to the County Council
is a “no recommendation” vote.
