The developer , Uncle’s Neck, LLC, a partnership between Henry Stephens, Chris Phillips and Donald Hazelwood, has donated a 190+- acre conservation easement to the Williamsburg Land Conservancy as part of the development of the River’s Bend at Uncle’s Neck project.

The donation of the easement is the result of over three years of work, and showcases how preservation and progress can work together.

Way before the project became a reality, Donald Hazelwood sat down with the Conservancy’s executive director and some of the Conservancy’s Board members to discuss how the land could be developed, while at the same time protect the natural resources that were abundant on the almost 400-acre parcel. While the property could have been sub-divided into over 110 units, River’s Bend at Uncle’s Neck will be a development of 35 lots, mostly waterfront property.image

Key in the development of only 35 units was James City County’s waiver of the requirement for a central well system for the project. Allowing for individual wells (which does not create a greater draw on the aquifer) gave Uncle’s Neck LLC the financial ability to limit development and protect a major portion of the property. “This is a great project for us,” said Henry Stephens. “The land surrounding this community is some of the most beautiful and environmentally sensitive land in the county, and we are pleased to be working with a wildlife biologist to ensure for the safety and preservation of the flora and fauna on the site,” Stephens continued.
