Frederick Road thoroughfare alignment and Goehmann Lane development
Fredericksburg
Summary
A 20-year-old plan routes an arterial roadway (a Friendship Lane extension) through land near Goehmann Lane. The developer wanted to build without the road and asked for an alternate route; after no alternate was proposed, the council denied the plat. Neighbors on Goehmann Lane fear losing land and historic properties if the route shifts their way.

Impact analysis
The developer still owes the city about $36,000 for the Kimley Horn alignment study.
Residents along the current route keep the planned roadway where it is, preserving long-term connectivity.
The developer is denied plat approval for now, and adjacent landowners remain subject to the reserved right-of-way.
