The County of Powhatan Board of Supervisors held a meeting on September 28, 2026, which included several procurement and budget-related discussions. Key procurement actions included approval of a contract with River City Tennis for the renovation of the Village Basketball Court, with a project budget of approximately $115,000, and authorization of a contract with Glavin Homes Architecture for a comprehensive feasibility study of the Pocahontas Landmark Center. The study, budgeted at around $192,000, will assess structural, environmental, and mechanical conditions and include community input to guide future decisions on renovation or demolition. The board also discussed a proposed private road development serving approximately ten lots, recommending approval with conditions. Additionally, the board reviewed a proposal to implement a business gross receipts tax, setting a public hearing for October 26, 2026, and discussed community feedback on shooting in residential areas, ultimately voting to not advance new ordinances at this time. Several proclamations recognizing community achievements and awareness months were also presented. Throughout the meeting, budget considerations, contract awards, and project scopes were carefully examined, with motions passed to authorize contracts and set public hearings relevant to county infrastructure and fiscal policy.
