Update 2025-06-07<\/strong>:\r\nVideos: Two Lowndes County cases, 1 Hahira, 2 Valdosta @ GLPC 2025-05-27<\/a>.\r\n

\r\nReschedule:<\/strong>\r\nbecause there was no quorum at the originally-scheduled date,\r\nthe Greater Lowndes Planning Commission (GLPC)\r\nwill meet this evening at 5:30 PM, Tuesday, May 27, 2025.\r\n

\r\nI suppose it’s a coincidence that two different requests for\r\n“a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for a reinstated\r\nmachine and welding shop in a Highway Commercial (C-H) zoning district”\r\nabout two Valdosta blocks apart are on the agenda for Monday’s\r\nPlanning Commission meeting.\r\n

Two Lowndes County cases, 1 Hahira case, @ GLPC *Rescheduled* 2025-05-27, Two Valdosta cases, both machine and welding shops<\/a>\r\n<\/p>\r\n

\r\nThere’s one Hahira case for “Special Exception for a financial institution in R-P zoning”.\r\n

\r\nAnd two Lowndes County cases, one for 10 acres from E-A to R-A, and the other for\r\n1.9 acres from C-G to C-H.\r\n

\r\nHere is the \r\nagenda<\/a>.\r\n

\r\nThe board packet materials for the Valdosta and Hahira cases are \r\n\r\non the LAKE website<\/a>,\r\nbecause Valdosta and Hahira City Planner Matt Martin sent them.\r\n
