City of Colonial Heights
“City Council rejected a proposal that could have opened up a prime
location at the southern end of the Boulevard for development. But the majority
of council members said it was a bad deal for the city. At its regular council
meeting in December, council discussed the possibility of a land swap between
the city and A+ Properties Inc. The discussion was intended to get council’s
input on how to proceed.
The scenario considered by council would have swapped a city-owned
0.752-acre property on the Boulevard on the south side of Archer Avenue with a
50-foot permanent easement across a 4.078-acre property owned by A+ Properties
just to the west and $10,000 in cash. The easement would run along the river
and would allow the city to complete a key part of the Appomattox River Greenway
Trail and have it run all the way to Appamatuck Park.”
