County Manager Joe Pritchard asked the Lowndes County Commission
to spend the funds the citizens of Lowndes County approved on the SPLOST VII referendum for the Naylor Boat Ramp:
We are proposing for the purchase of
4.35 acres of property on the Alapaha River designated for the purpose of a boat ramp.
You have the documentation there before you, the warranty deed.
And as you are aware, this also reserves for an easement by the current owner,
a proposed easement, and the appraisal is for
$24,000, as is the purchase price,
and that is the consideration for the proposed easement.
Commissioner Scottie Orenstein asked: Continue reading
Here are videos from Monday morning’s Work Session.
They already met again to vote this evening.

previous Planning Commission agenda
with the packet materials obtained by LAKE for the
Withlacoochee Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) condition changes,

LOWNDES COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
PROPOSED AGENDA
WORK SESSION, MONDAY, December 7, 2015, 8:30 a.m.
REGULAR SESSION, TUESDAY, December 8, 2015, 5:30 p.m.
327 N. Ashley Street – 2nd Floor
The mysterious missing materials from Monday’s Planning Commission meeting
are
on the LAKE website now,
thanks to Lowndes County Planner Jason Davenport, by electronic mail today, 3 December 2015.
He explained that this requested zoning, REZ-2015-20, was a followon to
rezoning
REZ-2010-15 from 2010 for the new Withlacoochee River Wastewater Treatment Plant, plus since then Valdosta had bought another adjoining parcel.
The materials explain the current concerns about buffers, setbacks, roads, other uses, noise, lights, etc.; see
the text pages.
The County Planner said the packet for next week’s County Commission meetings
will also include an agenda item cover sheet.
For all the other packet items from Monday’s GLPC meeting, see
the previous post.
See also
the related variance VAR-2015-16
that was before the Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBOA) Tuesday.
Here’s the beginning of the overview from the GLPC materials:
The main reason for this request is the current conditional
requirement of a bermed buffer along the norther boundary of the
subject property. Right now if the previously approved conditions
(Attached toward the end of the packet), approved site plan
(Attached . . ,), and ULDC are combined it looks like what is
currently required to be constructed is Continue reading
Still invisible: the change to Valdosta’s
Withlacoochee River Wastewater Treatment Plant.
Documents related to all the other items are
inked into the agenda in a previous post.
Moody AFB speaking about proposed Lowndes County MAZ ULDC text amendments
Within hours in response to an open records request she took over the telephone,
Valdosta City Clerk Teresa Bolden sent PDF of the packet materials for the
six Valdosta items for tonight’s GLPC meeting, at no charge,
including all the maps.
See below those six Valdosta items linked into a copy of
agenda:
a
funeral home,
a
radio station,
a
church accessory,
a
community commercial rezoning,
an
amendment to a Planned Development,
and
City of Valdosta sign regulations changes.
The change to the
Withlacoochee River Wastewater Treatment Plant
remains invisible, because, since it’s in the
Lowndes County part of the agenda,
the City of Valdosta can’t divulge it.
The materials for the county
subdivision rezoning after the old US 41 N widening.
and the
Moody Activities Zones (MAZ) Text Amendments
are also linked into the agenda below.

Two
ZBOA agenda items for tomorrow
are also on
the Planning Commission agenda for tonight:
the
Withlacoochee River Wastewater Treatment Plant
and the
radio tower
Snake Nation Press
for
WSNK-LP, Valdosta Community Radio.
Apparently both of these applicants want a variance from ZBOA
in addition to a conditional use permit.
Verizon wants
a variance in Hahira for a cell tower
and the Lucas Brothers want
a cemetery variance.
Valdosta-Lowndes County Zoning Board of Appeals
An invisible change to Valdosta’s
Withlacoochee River Wastewater Treatment Plant.
Already
a subdivision rezoning after the old US 41 N widening.
And still going in its third year, the
Moody Activities Zones (MAZ) Text Amendments,
with
updates last week,
including
the Chamber’s latest position,
all on top of
the previous updates.
Those are just the
Lowndes County cases on the
agenda tonight for the Greater Lowndes Planning Commission (GLPC).
The six
Valdosta cases
include
a
funeral home,
a
radio station,
a
church accessory,
a
community commercial rezoning,
an
amendment to a Planned Development,
and
City of Valdosta sign regulations changes.
All that plus Continue reading
Updates about Moody, Tillman Crossing, and the Withlacoochee River Wastewater Treatment Plant,
for tonight’s Planning Commission meeting, received after last week’s GLPC Work Session.
I would post tonight’s GLPC agenda, but it’s not on the county’s website.
See the surprise addition in this update of
REZ-2015-20 City of Valdosta WWTP, about which details were not included: “The proposed site plan
is the same one that was presented to you with your paperwork last
night.”
So if you’re not a Planning Commissioner, you don’t get to see what the City of Valdosta is proposing for its new Withlacoochee River Wastewater Treatment Plant.
Another item is apparently known by several names: Continue reading
