Louisa County meeting summaries, agendas, and minutes

Louisa County agendas: Green Springs special exception hearing, nine agricultural districts, Ava Energy Center review

Louisa County's Board of Supervisors, Planning Commission and Electoral Board met four times between Oct. 5 and Oct. 12, 2026, on agendas that listed a special exception public hearing, nine proposed Agricultural and Forestal Districts and a conditional use permit request for the Ava Energy Center. Only agendas were available for these meetings — minutes have not been published — so this roundup reports what was scheduled, not what was decided. No vote tallies or dollar amounts appear in the records reviewed.

Board of Supervisors, Oct. 5

The board's agenda scheduled a closed session at 5:00 p.m. and administrative items at 6:00 p.m. A public hearing was set on special exception request SEP2026-01, filed by Green Springs Holding LLC as applicant and owner, with Scott Kane listed as agent. The agenda did not describe the request's scope or location.

Consent agenda items included contract awards for janitorial services at Louisa County Airport and for benefits consulting services, pass-through appropriations for Fire & EMS grants and Lake Anna Advisory Committee grant funding, and a resolution to approve additional FY2026 budget re-appropriations. New business listed updates to the county's procurement policy and capital assets accounting policy, the rural long range transportation plan, and establishment of a Growth Management and Rural Preservation Workgroup.

Planning Commission, Oct. 8: two sessions

At 5:00 p.m., the commission scheduled discussion of ordinance amendments concerning campgrounds and temporary workforce lodging. The agenda listed no votes, public hearings or dollar amounts, and no items under New Business or Old Business.

At 7:00 p.m., public hearings were scheduled on amendments to Chapter 86 Land Development Regulations adding nine Agricultural and Forestal Districts: Cuckoo, South Anna, Healing Springs, Green Springs, Trevilian Station, Ellisville, Gold Mine Creek, Mountain Road and the newly created Mustang Valley.

A second hearing covered CUP2026-03, Ava Energy Center, LLC — a review under 15.2-2232 for Comprehensive Plan conformance, together with a conditional use permit request. Owners listed are Betsye & Calvert Compton, Nancy & Brady Pleasants, and Cherry Family LTD Partnership. The commission also listed an appointment to the Growth Management and Rural Preservation Workgroup and a discussion update on that topic. Both sessions were listed for the Louisa County Public Meeting Room.

Electoral Board, Oct. 5 and Oct. 12

Both meetings listed a single item: review of Officer of Election Interest Forms, after establishing a quorum. No other business was listed on either agenda.

Coming up

Agendas for all meetings are posted by Louisa County; minutes for the October meetings had not been published as of Oct. 19.

Louisa County agendas: supervisors set Green Springs hearing; planners take up nine agricultural districts and Ava Energy Center

Louisa County's Board of Supervisors and Planning Commission were scheduled to take up land-use and budget items in early October, according to agendas published for five meetings held between Oct. 5 and Oct. 12. Minutes for those meetings have not yet been published, so the records available show what was listed for consideration — not what was decided. No vote tallies and no dollar amounts appear in any of the agendas.

Board of Supervisors, Oct. 5

The board's agenda listed a closed session at 5:00 p.m. and administrative items at 6:00 p.m. The scheduled public hearing was on special exception request SEP2026-01, with Green Springs Holding LLC listed as applicant and owner and Scott Kane as agent.

The consent agenda listed contract awards for janitorial services at Louisa County Airport and for benefits consulting services, along with pass-through appropriations for Fire & EMS grants and Lake Anna Advisory Committee grant funding. A resolution to approve additional FY2026 budget re-appropriations was also listed.

New business items included updates to the county's procurement policy, its capital assets accounting policy, and the rural long range transportation plan, plus establishing a Growth Management and Rural Preservation Workgroup.

Planning Commission, Oct. 8 — two sessions

The commission's 5:00 p.m. session listed one substantive item: a discussion of ordinance amendments concerning campgrounds and temporary workforce lodging. The agenda listed no votes, no public hearings, and no dollar amounts.

The 7:00 p.m. session listed public hearings on amendments to Chapter 86, Land Development Regulations, adding nine Agricultural and Forestal Districts: Cuckoo, South Anna, Healing Springs, Green Springs, Trevilian Station, Ellisville, Gold Mine Creek, Mountain Road, and the newly created Mustang Valley.

Also on that agenda was a 15.2-2232 review and conditional use permit request, CUP2026-03, for the Ava Energy Center, LLC. The agenda describes the review as one for Comprehensive Plan conformance. Owners listed are Betsye & Calvert Compton, Nancy & Brady Pleasants, and Cherry Family LTD Partnership.

The commission also listed an appointment to the Growth Management and Rural Preservation Workgroup, a discussion update on Growth Management and Rural Preservation, and a discussion of the campground and temporary workforce lodging amendments.

Electoral Board, Oct. 5 and Oct. 12

The Electoral Board met twice in the period covered. Both agendas listed the same two items: establishing a quorum and reviewing Officer of Election Interest Forms. No other business was listed.

What the records do not show

All five meetings are recorded as agenda-only; minutes had not been published as of Oct. 13. That means the agendas establish what was scheduled, not what was approved, rejected, amended, or paid. The absence of minutes is not evidence that no action was taken, and no outcome should be assumed from these listings.

Coming up

The Electoral Board is scheduled to meet Oct. 19. Its agenda again lists establishing a quorum and reviewing Officer of Election Interest Forms, with no other business listed. Residents who want to follow the supervisors' special exception hearing, the agricultural district amendments, or the Ava Energy Center request should watch for minutes from the Oct. 5 and Oct. 8 meetings to be posted.
