Powell Pond Road subdivision faces opposition from neighbors
Powell Pond Road property owners pressed the Aiken County Planning Commission to block Buckhead Land Group 15 lot project on 41 acres near S.C. 19 and I-20. They argued drainage, erosion, and traffic concerns threaten Shaw's Creek water and property values, but Chairman Mike Farmer said the plan meets county zoning and cannot be halted without code violations.
