Videos: Five Valdosta rezonings, one Lowndes County, Lake Park Case pulled @ GLPC 2023-05-22

Last month at the Greater Lowndes Planning Commission,
the longest item was almost twelve minutes on

Tony Tong’s tattoo studio
,
for which they eventually recommended approval with slightly modified conditions.

The only Lowndes County rezoning got three and a half minutes, for

8. REZ-2023-07 Project Viking, Hunt Road, Amended conservation
.
Like all the others (except the retracted Lake Park item),
GLPC recommended approval.
That case comes before the Lowndes County Commission

this Monday, June 12, 2023, for a decision Tuesday evening
.

Below are links to each LAKE video of each agenda item,
with a few comments by Gretchen Quarterman,
followed by a LAKE video playlist.

Packet: Five Valdosta rezonings, one Lowndes County, Lake Park Case pulled @ GLPC 2023-05-22

Update 2023-06-11:
Videos: Five Valdosta rezonings, one Lowndes County, Lake Park Case pulled @ GLPC 2023-05-22.

These redevelopment rezonings all look unremarkable,
although one never knows who will turn out to be in opposition or support.

In addition to the five Valdosta items and the one Lowndes County item
on the agenda for Monday evening’s Greater Lowndes Planning Commission (GLPC) meeting,
there was a Lake Park item, but it was pulled.
I have included the packet materials for Lake Park anyway, for comparison
in case it turns up in a later meeting.

Videos: North Oak Street, Lakeland Highway, Rocky Ford Road @ GLPC 2018-03-26

The Planning Commission had a large crowd,
including County Commissioner Joyce Evans and Chairman Bill Slaughter
visible lower left, and that may be Commissioner Mark Wisenbaker in front of them.


lower left: Joyce Evans, Bill Slaughter, Lowndes County Commission, Crowd

Most of them

left
after the

North Oak Street

planned development, excuse me, rezoning,
took almost an hour.
See the notes on that item below for a spoiler for what happened to it later.

Second longest at almost fourteen minutes was the

Lakeland Highway
rezoning, in which the current owners
apparently were trying to fix a problem left them by previous owners.

Third at almost seven minutes was a tie between
the

CR Ventures
(Camp Rock again) rezoning on Rocky Ford Road
and
the

Kaylyn Gill Tucker
rezoning on Enoch Lake Road,
carving out a plot for a single house from a planned development.

Below are Continue reading

Rocky Ford Road again @ GLPC 2018-03-26

This

CR Ventures
rezoning on
the agenda for tonight
is two doors down on Rocky Ford Road from
the recent

Camp Rock
rezoning, again for a Watkins,
and again represented by Jack Langdale.
Coincidence, or related?

Gretchen

thanked them for putting most of the response to her open records request
on CDs
, shortly after they had said at their recent planning session that
they wanted to promote interaction with the community.
Still nothing from the county attorney about the Sabal Trail documents, and it’s been well over three days.
I

invited them on behalf of WWALS to a workshop and a movie
;
there’s more below.

5.d. REZ-2016-05 Union Rd Subdivision, E-A to R-A, ~114 acres

for more water issues.

Three citizens spoke explicitly about the pipeline,

Jim Parker

Michael Noll
,
and

Dr. Mario Bartoletti
,
as also noted in
Jason Stewart, VDT, 11 February 2016,
Sabal protests continue.
As I noted

in another post

I go to a lot of county commission meetings in Georgia and Florida. Nowhere but Lowndes County do I see Continue reading
