The Issue

Attention All Richland County Residents

Richland County has planned for a massive rezoning of our neighborhoods in the unincorporated areas around Forest Acres, Arcadia Lakes, Sandwood, Rockyford Lake, City of Columbia, and the Hickory Ridge subdivision.

The new zoning allows multi-family housing in practically all zoning classes, thereby eliminating our traditional single-family neighborhoods.  Increasing population density will:

  • Create more traffic
  • Introduce more crowding into our schools
  • Reduce property values
  • Increase incidence of crime
  • Further overload our utilities and storm drainage systems

We need your help to say "No" to rezoning. If you don't want to have an increase in density and multi-family homes added to our neighborhoods, please consider signing our petition.

Let's save our single-family neighborhoods together!
