Tax Map No. 23000 and 10088

The sale will be held on the front steps of Gloucester County Circuit Court, 7400 Justice Drive, Gloucester, Virginia.

The Secretary of Housing and Urban Development will bid $971,496.71.

The Property is being sold in its “as-is, where-is” condition, without any warranty of any kind by the Secretary, HUD and/or the Foreclosure Commissioner.

There will be no proration of taxes, rents or other income or liabilities, except that the purchaser will pay, at or before closing, his prorata share of any real estate taxes that have been paid by the Secretary to the date of the foreclosure sale.

When making their bids, all bidders except the Secretary must submit a deposit 10% of the successful bid in the form of a certified check or cashier’s check made out to the United States Secretary of Housing and Urban Development. A deposit need not accompany each oral bid. If the successful bid is oral, a deposit of 10% of the successful bid must be presented before the bidding is closed. The deposit is nonrefundable. The remainder of the purchase price must be delivered within 30 days of the sale or at such time as the Secretary may determine for good cause shown, time being of the essence. This amount, like the bid deposits, must be delivered in the form of a certified or cashier’s check. If the Secretary is the highest bidder, he need not pay the bid amount in cash. The successful bidder will pay all conveying fees, all real estate and other taxes that are due on or after the delivery date of the remainder of the payment and all other costs associated with the transfer of title. At the conclusion of the sale, the deposits of the unsuccessful bidders will be returned to them.

The Secretary may, in his/her sole and absolute discretion, grant an extension of time within which to deliver the remainder of the payment. All extensions will be for 15-day increments for a fee of $500.00, paid in advance. The extension fee shall be in the form of a certified or cashier’s check made payable to the Secretary of HUD. If the high bidder closes the sale prior to the expiration of any extension period, the unused portion of the extension fee shall be applied toward the amount due.

If the high bidder is unable to close the sale within the required period, or within any extensions of time granted by the Secretary, the high bidder may be required to forfeit the cash deposit or, at the election of the foreclosure commissioner after consultation with the HUD representative, will be liable to HUD for any costs incurred as a result of such failure. The Commissioner may, at the direction of the HUD representative, offer the property to the second highest bidder for an amount equal to the highest price offered by that bidder.

There is no right of redemption, or right of possession based upon right of redemption, in the mortgagor or others subsequent to a foreclosure completed pursuant to the Act. Therefore, the Foreclosure Commissioner will issue a Deed to the purchaser(s) upon receipt of the entire purchase price in accordance with the terms of sale as provided herein. HUD does not guarantee that the property will be vacant.

The scheduled foreclosure sale shall be cancelled or adjourned if it is established, by documented written application of the mortgagor to the Foreclosure Commissioner not less than 3 days before the date of sale, or otherwise, that the default or defaults upon which the foreclosure is based did not exist at the time of service of this notice of default and foreclosure sale, or all amounts due under the mortgage agreement are tendered to the Foreclosure Commissioner, in the form of a certified or cashier’s check payable to the Secretary of HUD, before public auction of the property is completed.

The amount that must be paid if the mortgage is to be reinstated prior to the scheduled sale is $967,957.86 as of August 4, 2026, plus all other amounts that would be due under the mortgage agreement if payments under the mortgage had not been accelerated, advertising costs and postage expenses incurred in giving notice, mileage by the most reasonable road distance for posting notices and for the Foreclosure Commissioner’s attendance at the sale, reasonable and customary costs incurred for title and lien record searches, the necessary out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Foreclosure Commissioner for recording documents, a commission for the Foreclosure Commissioner, and all other costs incurred in connection with the foreclosure prior to reinstatement.

Tender of payment by certified or cashier’s check or application for cancellation of the foreclosure sale shall be submitted to the address of the Foreclosure Commissioner provided below.

PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE

GLOUCESTER COUNTY

BOARD OF SUPERVISORS

Pursuant to the Code of Virginia, the Gloucester County Board of Supervisors will conduct a Public Hearing on Tuesday, September 1, 2026, beginning at 6:00 p.m. in the Colonial Courthouse, 6504 Main Street, Gloucester, Virginia to consider the following:

Rezoning Z-25-02 – An application by Evergreen Development Company, LLC (Robert Kubicki, applicant, and D.R. Horton, developer) to amend the Gloucester County Zoning Map to reclassify +/-130.8 acres of 169.635 acres (consisting of part or all of Tax Map numbers 32-17, 17L, 22, 25, & 31: RPC #41273, 44917, 21430, 27606, & 13693) from RC-1, Rural Countryside and B-1, General Business (conditional pursuant to Rezoning Application Z-97-01), to PUD-1, Planned Unit Development (conditional pursuant to Rezoning Application Z-25-02) with a portion of the parcels to remain zoned RC-1 and B-1 (conditional pursuant to Rezoning Application Z-07-01). The purpose of the application is to develop 214 townhouse (attached) units and 213 single-family (detached) units in two phases (with Phase 1 containing 272 total units, including 134 townhouse units and 138 single-family units, and Phase 2 containing 155 total units, including 80 townhouse units and 75 single-family units). However, as permitted in Proffer 6 of the proposed Proffer Statement, the total number single-family units may be increased up to 293 units as long as the total number of townhouse units is decreased proportionally. The property is located in the Abingdon Magisterial District along Foxmill Centre Parkway (SR 1076) with access to Route 17 South.

The Comprehensive Plan identifies this area as Highway Mixed Use and Mixed Density Residential within the Development District and the Gloucester Court House Village Plan identifies this area as Business Mixed Use and Mixed Residential Expansion. The Development District is intended to be the County’s principal population center and most suitable area for new population growth while minimizing impacts on local roads. Furthermore, within the Highway Mixed Use and Mixed Density Residential designations, identifiable places defined by form (instead of use) containing a variety of housing types, including higher-density, village-scale development served by public water and sewer with sidewalks, street trees, street lighting, open space, compatible development patterns, and access management standards can be appropriate. The Business Mixed Use and Mixed Residential Expansion designations are intended to contain increasing amounts of residential uses with a mixture of dwelling types that are well-connected to adjacent commercial areas along Route 17. In addition, higher densities may be appropriate in conjunction with pedestrian-oriented features, green areas, parks, and appropriate infrastructure, so long as these densities are also compatible within the context of existing adjacent development patterns.

The PUD-1 District is intended to allow for more unique and flexible arrangements in site planning and development than permitted through land use requirements within other zoning districts. The applicant has submitted a Proffer Statement containing PUD Ordinance requirements, which will establish the zoning requirements for this development. However, where the PUD Ordinance does not describe a zoning requirement, the development is subject to the applicable requirements within the Zoning Ordinance. The applicant has also submitted other voluntary proffers regarding consistency with a master plan, individual cash proffers for school improvements (on a per unit basis) as well as fire department and public water capacity upgrades (both on a one-time basis). Additional proffers include connection to public water and sewer and “complete street” roadways, among others.

The preceding is a summary, not the full text, of the application. It is not intended to be a comprehensive representation of the full application and does not substitute for the the full text of the application, which is available for review on the web at www.gloucesterva.gov/publichearings, and in the County Administrator’s Office at 6489 Main Street, Gloucester, Virginia.

The meeting will be broadcast live through the County website meeting portal at: https://www.gloucesterva.gov/640/Meeting-Portal and on Cox channel 48.
