Prince William Planning Commission
The Prince William County Planning Commission approved four developments across the county at its Dec. 10 meeting, the last of 2025.
The Commission unanimously approved of three developments, while approving of another in a 7-1 vote. Here are details on some of the final votes of the Commission’s 2025 term:

The first denial, in a 7-1 vote, came for the Maple Valley Grove development, which would’ve had 274 units on nearly 24 acres of land. The proposal had 242 multi-family stacked units and 32 multi-family traditional units.
The second denial was for the Hoadly Square rezoning and Comprehensive Plan Amendment, which would’ve changed the land-use designation for about 48 acres from the Occoquan Reservoir Protection Area (ORPA) to a mixed-use neighborhood. The total area was 58 acres for 279 units, 265 of which were single-family attached homes and 14 single-family detached.
The Prince William County Planning Commission denied a deferred data center plan slated for Hornbaker Road at its Nov. 5 meeting.
The plan was originally brought forth to the Commission at its Sept. 24 meeting, but two tied votes — one for approval and the other for denial — forced the Commission to defer the plan to a later date.
In a 6-1 vote — Christopher Carroll, who represented the Brentsville District, left the Commission before the decision — the Planning Commission is passing along the project to the Board of Supervisors for their consideration.
The project spans 1,123 total acres with 1,058 units across three developments. One of the developments is adjacent to the Prince William Golf Club and the Longleaf Nature Preserve and is aptly named “Long Leaf at Kettle Run.”

Following the Planning Commission’s approval in early July, the Board followed up with its own approval of the two-fold application that requested nearly 19 acres of land be rezoned to accommodate limited future development.
The developer wants to amend the CPA and rezone the area to allow for the limited development in a truly mixed-use area of commercial and retail to the north; industrial trucking and storage to the south; railroad tracks and small residences to the east; and single-family homes to the west.
