Update 2022-08-09<\/strong>:\r\nVideos: REZ-2022-09 Flannigan, James Road, Walkers Crossing Roundabout, $516,710 communications @ LCC Work 2022-08-08<\/a>.\r\n

\r\nThis morning at the Work Session, for voting tomorrow evening at the Regular Session,\r\nthe Flannigan James Road rezoning is back on the Lowndes County Commission Agenda,\r\nafter being\r\ntabled \r\nMay 16, 2022<\/a>.\r\nLooks like county staff have worked around to supporting it this time;\r\ndon’t know what the neighbors who petitioned against it think.\r\n

\r\n\"[Flannigan<\/a>\r\n
Flannigan James Road rezoning back again<\/a>\r\n<\/p>\r\n

\r\nThere’s also a GDOT maintenance agreement for the Walkers Crossing Roundabout,\r\nthe second reading of the Abandonment of a Portion of Boring Pond Lane,\r\nand adopting water and sewer infrastructure for West Schoolhouse Road Subdivision, which “is located in the Lake Park area off of\r\nSchoolhouse Pond Road, Payton Place, Burnt Pine Drive, and Timber Wind Circle and has a total of 31 lots.”\r\n

\r\nThe county as usual pretends none of the above will cost anything.\r\nThe two big budget items are for communications:\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\r\nCost<\/th>\r\n\r\nWhat<\/th>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n

\r\nFor Flannigan,\r\nthis could be a significant change from May to now in the packet sheets:\r\n

\r\n

\r\nC-G zoning is listed as a permitted zoning<\/del> recommended within a Neighborhood Activity Center Character Area.\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n

\r\nThis paragraph from last time is missing this time:\r\n

\r\n

\r\nThe TRC reviewed this application and had no objectionable comments, noting that if approved, the minimum\r\nbuffer required between Commercial and Residential zoning districts is at least 15\u2019 wide and includes a 6\u2019 tall\r\nopaque privacy fence, 3 shade trees per 100 linear feet, and 19 shrubs per 100 linear feet, and continued\r\naccess from Smith Street will be determined by the County Engineer during the plan review process when an actual\r\nuse of the property is determined. The Planning Commission heard the request at their May meeting, and\r\ndiscussed the concerns of certain commercial uses versus higher density residential uses, and ultimately\r\nrecommended Denial (10-0).<\/del>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n

\r\nInstead the current agenda sheet has these two paragraphs:\r\n

\r\n

\r\nThe Planning Commission heard the request at their May meeting, and discussed the concerns of specific\r\ncommercial uses versus higher density residential uses, and ultimately recommended Denial (10-0). The\r\napplicant requested that the Board of Commissioners table the request at the June 16, 2022 meeting to allow\r\nfor additional meetings with the neighbors while a conceptual site plan was developed for review.\r\n

\r\nThe applicant submitted a site plan to the TRC, which was reviewed and returned with comments based on\r\nthe proposed uses of the property as shown. If the C-G zoning is approved, additional TRC meetings would be\r\nrequired before any development occurs to address access from Smith Street, landscaping and buffering\r\nrequirements, and any supplemental standards for specific uses.\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n

\r\nThe agenda sheet doesn’t say whether that’s a new site plan since May,\r\nor the same old one\r\n\r\nfrom May<\/a>, i.e., this survey plat:\r\n

\r\nWe’ll see when we get the board packet for this week.\r\nI forgot to request it earlier.\r\n

\r\nHere is\r\nthe agenda<\/a>.\r\nThere was no Planning Commission at the end of last month:\r\nit was cancelled due to lack of business<\/a>.\r\n
