MONCKS CORNER, S.C. (WCBD) – A proposed development will come before the Moncks Corner Town Planning Commission on Tuesday night. It’s one of several developments that could be coming before the town in the future.
DR Horton is requesting annexation and re-zoning for 16.29 acres of property in the Perry Hill community.
The developer wants to build 18 single-family detached homes and up to 48 townhomes.
Staff is recommending denial for the request and said they made that decision because there is additional density in an otherwise existing rural area, with little connectivity to other town amenities.
“They have one section that was already approved off 52. They’re trying to do another project over on the 17 side. Every project we will look at,” said Moncks Corner Mayor Tom Hamilton.
Mayor Hamilton says this isn’t the only potential development that is being discussed around the Moncks Corner area.
“The Weyerhauser tract and the Cane Bay tract — when I came into office that was a development that the town was looking to annex into, that’s more down Highway 6, Cooper Store Road, and Black Tom Road,”
