Planning and Zoning - Regular Meeting

Father, we know that thou art the one that we must believe in. Our Father, we ask you to lead us and guide us as we attempt to do the county's business. And we'll be so careful to give you all the praise and the glory. In Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.

Amen.

As we get started, first I'd like for the board members to introduce themselves. I'll start with, of course, my name's Canola Scott. I am the chair. Cynthia Fortson is absent tonight. She had to go out of town to a funeral, so we asked that you keep her in this office for us. And I'll start with my left over here. Hi, guys.

Can I stand at District 3? Yes, Bradley, Vice Chair, and District 1. Lee Mitchell, District 2.

William Smith, District 4.

Melissa Payne, Zoning Administrator. Tracy Patrick, Zoning Administrator.

And I'm Mike Brewer, County Attorney.

All right. Thank you all for being here tonight. As a personal witness, I'm required to read a few statements regarding the zoning profit. If you have any questions, I will address them once I finish. Zoning directly affects private property rights, which include the right of the property owner to the enjoyment of the use of their property and the right of adjacent owners and the general public not to be unreasonably harmed by specific land use. Tonight is the first of two public hearings. A second public hearing will be held before the Board of Commissioners on July the 6th, 2026, at 6 p.m. at this location. Attendance is not required, but your attendance is recommended. Order of business. As to the order of business tonight, I will introduce the AFCA, and then the zoning administration will give her comments. Then the AFCA will come forward, state their name, address, and state their reasoning for the request. You may provide information or documentation supporting the application. Next, the Planning and Zoning Commission will have the opportunity to ask the applicants questions. Next, I will open the floor for public comment. Ample time will be given to those that may want to speak for or in opposition to the rezoning request. All comments will be addressed to the Commission and not to others in attendance. No personal attacks will be allowed. Next asker will be allowed ample time to rebut any concerns expressed by other speakers. At this junction, no other comments will be allowed except by the board members. Then I will open a special session of the Planning and Planning Commission that will ask for a motion to approve, deny, or approve with conditions. The recommendations will be made to the board of commissioners July the 6th. Does any of the planning and zoning members need to recuse themselves for any requests or not? Hearing none, any questions from the audience? If not, we'll begin with our first request.

Family and land Parham are requesting to re-own their 8.88 acres from A1 to AR to allow a second home to be placed on the property as an accessory dwelling unit for a child. Property is located at 231 Parham Dudley Road in Bowman on Mount 90, parcel 22C in District 4.

All right. Parham's here? Yes, sir. Please come forward. And anything you want to add to this or on this board's agenda?

No, I just pretty much summed it up there, so.

All right, any questions for this gentleman from the board? All right, thanks, sir. Thank you. All right, is there anyone here that would like to in favor of this result request? Hearing none, is there anyone who wants to speak in opposition? All right, we'll close the public hearing and I'll bring it back to the board and I will entertain a motion.

Mr. Chairman, I make a motion that we approve as presented.

I have a motion to approve. I'll second. Second. Any questions or comments? all right uh mr president yes or no yes yes sorry yes yes all right this has been approved we will present to the board of commissioners and recommend their approval on july 6th okay all right number two

Matt Stratton, applicant for his brother Weston Stratton, is requesting to refund his 13.86 acres from A2JR to allow a four-acre portion to be split out and retained and to give his brother the remaining 9.86 acres. The property is located at 2009 River Road in Carlton on Mount 1095. partial 5-01A in District 4.

All right, Mr. Stratton, please come forward. All right, let us know what you want.

I'm sorry, my voice is not okay. That's okay. I mean, that's pretty much all it is.

So you're west and then, okay, so Matt's not here. I thought he was gonna be the applicant.

He's not here.

Okay, that's fine.

He's preaching tonight again.

Oh.

Any questions for Mr. Stratton?

Can you specify on the map there where the current mobile home is and is that the only, is that the only dwelling on the parent parcel?

Yeah. The mobile home.

It's right at the road.

Yeah, it's not on that four acre. This one.

If you want to come point to the screen.

It should be somewhere around here. The local home. OK. But yes, yes, yes.

That's the house. The center of the church.

Correct.

What is that?

I'm not aware of it. It doesn't make sense. It met the requirements to make everything work to where there's 17 minutes, so you're not locking up and stuff around here. if the portion goes there, and then I'll own my driveway, come in there, so there's no conflict in there on this area. We'll write the measurements and see.

Are there any immediate plans for the part of the parcel that's in the lower right-hand, the left-hand section?

The 9.87 acres? No, no.

That was just wood. No plan to put a house there or anything, an additional house?

You changed it this spring. I don't think it perched or nothing like that. It doesn't know what I mean, you know. All right, any further questions? Does that answer your question? Any further questions? All right, thanks, sir.

All right, we'll open the public hearing. Is there anyone here that wants to speak in favor of this rezone request? Hearing none, is there anyone here who wants to speak in opposition? Hearing none, we'll close the public hearing. I'll entertain a motion.

Chairman, I'll make a motion that we approve as presented.

A motion to approve. Second. Any further comments or questions? All right. A motion to approve. Yes. Yes.

Yes.

Yes. All right. Mr. Stanton, we will present to the Board of Commissioners on July the 6th to approve. Recommend approved. Thank you. Number three.

Sandy Stanton, applicant for Robert Plant, is requesting to rezone his 45.7 acres from A1 to A2 to allow the property to be divided into four tracts Consistent of two 10-acre tracts and two, sorry, and one 12.26-acre tract and one 13.63-acre tract for family members. The property is located at 121 John Down Road in Danielsville on map 11, parcel 103 in district one.

All right, Mr. Flint.

How y'all doing? Good, how are you, sir? Good, sir. Sandy couldn't make it. I'm actually Robert's brother. I'll be glad to answer any questions y'all have on it, if there is any. What's your name? I'm sorry, Rick.

Rick.

Flint. Yes, ma'am. My land doesn't join the land also. We have about 80 acres there that are jointed among my four brothers and their kids that live there. I think there's five houses on that. And we're wanting to allow some of the other nieces and nephews to build houses here with the plan.

All right. Questions from the board for Mr. Fletch?

So no future splits planned?

The only future split that we would like to be able to consider down the road, if you look at track number one, we would like to down the road divide that into two five-acre tracks. My daughter is behind track number one, and my son would like to possibly start that with her if that would be allowed in the future. Any more questions? I have another thing. I'm sorry. I didn't want to answer this question. My son is looking at buying the house that's on the 12.06 acres. We're looking maybe dividing that out and him buying the house separately too down the road. But it's all family. We'll have a total of, I think there's 80 acres there and 45 there that are just

I'm sorry, sir.

Your son wants to build a house? No, sir, there's already an existing house there. It's kind of in the lower right corner where Judd's down. There's a house there that's been there that Ms. Fitzpatrick lived in.

Thank you. Any further questions?

If you would sign in your name. Okay.

Thank you, ma'am. Thank you.

No further questions?

Thank you, sir. Yes, sir. Thank you.

All right. We will open the public hearing. Is there anyone here that wants to speak in favor of this reasonable request? Hearing none, is there anyone who wants to speak in opposition? Hearing none, we'll close the public hearing and bring it back before the board and I'll enter a motion.

I make a motion to approve this request. I'll second. I have a motion and a second to approve.

Any further discussion? All right, Lee? Yes.

Yes.

Yes. Yes. All right. This has been approved by this board. to the Board of Commissioners so they have a final say. The second public hearing will be on July 6th, right here. Yes, sir, thank you. All right, moving on, number four.

Okay, Denise Koest-Keisler, applicant for Land Church Estate, is requesting to re-own a 5.67 acre portion from A1 to AR to split and sell and to re-own the remaining 10.29 acres from A1 to A2 to bring the property into compliance with zoning regulations and the standalone tract sale. The property is located at 499 Double Branch Road in Danielsville on Mount 55, Parcel 79 in District 2.

All right, Denise. Please come forward. Good evening.

Good evening.

Let me just say the six point, the little green part that's cut out right there, my grandfather cut that off from my brother who has since moved. So that's the reason. My mom passed away in February. So we have a gentleman's agreement with a neighbor that is interested that the 10.9 acreage there, which would then allow the house to stand alone and for us to get it ready to go on the market.

That's Mr. Hayes. Okay. Can you show us the house?

That is in .

Okay.

Any further questions for?

I have one. There's an easement, if you look at the parcel there, the 5.6 acres. And then over here on this right side, there's an easement that goes back and then takes the 90 and goes across to access the 10.29 acres. The property has not been sold yet, correct? Not yet, not yet. Just curious, is there a reason, if he's planning to purchase the property, is there a reason to run the easement across the parcel 5.67 when it could just be run down the property line belonging to Mr. Haynes to get to his own property.

Right, and we have that same question, and Tracy might can allude to there was, was there an amount or something that easement had to be 30 feet? Right, and so Mr. Paul had to come back out and redraw it.

Redraw it, yeah, because it turned out as a 50 foot easement, but But honestly, it could be ran from his parcel.

I mean, there's no opposition to that. It just seems to me like if he's going to buy that piece of property for access purposes, it could be on his own property.

Right. Do you remember that? And Mr. Paul said he had to redo it.

I think that would shake out at the flat recording stage. As you know, they have six months, so it's after the rezoning. The 10.29 is combined with the now cut-out parcel, and that could be shown on the plan, and the easement could be shorter the way you're describing.

Okay, perfect. I mean, I just think that if you get in the opposition to do anything, that's reasonable. That's right.

Okay. So, Mr. Hayes, is there anybody?

If this is going through and approved in everything.

All right, any further questions? Thank you, ma'am. All right, we'll open the public hearing. If anyone here wants to speak, do me a favor. Mr. Scott, please come forward. I wouldn't have said enough if I had come forward. I'm just gonna say, once Mike buys that property, that easement will never be used.

Because it adjoins his land already. He wouldn't use it for anything. He would have no reason to ever use that, but it was just something we had to do for you guys because it can't be landlocked.

All right. Thank you. Anyone else? Anyone else want to speak in favor of? Hearing none. Anyone want to speak in opposition to this reasonable request? Hearing none. We'll close the public hearing and I'll bring it back to the board and entertain a motion. Chair, I'd like a motion to approve. Motion to approve.

Second.

I'm second. Any further comments? Smith? Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. All right. We will recommend to the board of commissioners on July the 6th that this be approved. You don't have to be here, but I suggest that you do in case they have more questions. All right, moving on. Number five.

James and Karina Catlett are requesting to re-own their five acres from A1 to industrial to allow the operation of the machining, metal fabrication, and assembly business for custom, excuse me, for custom automation systems on the property. The property is located at 0 Highway 106 South in Hull on Mat 31, Parcel 7-02 in District 3. And I would like to add that a few of the board members after speaking and reviewing Mr. Catlett's letter of intent felt that it would be more appropriate if zoned business instead of industrial. So Mr. Catlett met with Mr. Pruitt, the county attorney, and they discussed the options and have established some enforceable conditions that restricted the uses of the property outdoor storage noise level, odor, dust, traffic, and glare level is applicable. So we are now wanting to change that from A1 to this one.

Mr. Kevin, would you like to come forward? Yes.

I have a seven minute presentation, if that's okay. I'd like to review here and go through the kind of details of the business and what we do and intended uses here. Okay. So as stated, this is to basically rezone this as either industrial or business with conditions as a property here. We're asking to basically have this approved. And either zoning really works for us, you know, basically as long as there's some flex use on the space, because it doesn't fall into completely 100% business. That's where you come up with the variance of that. And that is what I met with Mike to review as well. That was also discussed, I can do it in the next slide. That was also discussed during the Mesa County BOW ASWS meeting on June 1st, I believe with another rezoning application for the light industrial zoning. So I know that that is something that the county has already been considering and are looking into as far as light industrial versus a full industrial platform. Our business is not a new business. We've been around since 2013. This is a relocation of the business from the current location it's at in Alpharetta. And the reason that's important is because it's an established business that has a track record as an accountable neighbor, as an accountable renter in the current space that we're in. And in addition to that, we also live on part of this property as well. So we're going to be neighbors, just like everyone else in this room, living near the property. This here is just the current operation and the business where it's at. Kind of show how things look from the outside of the facility. So you can see from the front there, standard professional building. And then from the rear, that's how everything looks as well. Everything's contained within the building and cleanly. No, you know, emissions, you know, um this also is uh we're not just locating here uh we also live here so this is a reason of five acres of the 15 acres that we live on so we are theoretically speaking going to be the closest neighbor to the facility up there um and you know there's going to be really no one else other than us that would like to keep their property as clean and tidy uh and as well as you know not polluted in regards to noise odors anything in the soil affecting the water table or anything like that This here is just an example of a system that we put together just to kind of elaborate what we do. I know when it's looked at as metal fabrication and or industrial, it comes with certain forethoughts that come with that, but I wanted to just demonstrate a system that shows what we do to kind of alleviate some of those concerns there.

Might not play it up here. Oh, no.

Okay. We can mix that, I suppose. So basically what that is, it's a system that we did for a company called Serum. What they do is they rescue, essentially, surplus or unused medication and redirect it to patients who can otherwise afford it. It's a nonprofit company. And what we did for them is we built a conveyor system with multiple robots, vision inspection cameras, and different actuators to bring in that medication and then sort that medication so that it can be reprocessed and reused. And our CMT equipment and fabrication equipment that we have is utilized to build that equipment that we manufacture for our customers. It's not like we have big presses and equipment that's stamping and doing items for clients. That isn't of our own. So this is just the highway front parcel. There is some buffering there too. It's directly frontage on Highway 106. It's already there. It's five of the 15 acres that we already discussed. And this is already set up with three separate tracks already, which we'll see in the next slide. And the adjacent property is actually county-owned and already zoned as business there. There's also it's a low quiet low impact use we have two to three employees the facility is about 6,000 square feet with such a thousand square feet over the home-based business square footage So it's not like we're putting in the you know, a hundred thousand square foot facility here We're going to have 10 to 20 vehicle trips per day and business hours are Monday to Friday 8 to 5 nothing outside of the abnormal there we don't have any outdoor storage all the work is enclosed within the facility and And we have minimal compliant materials such as some coolant lubricants and this and that for some of the machines that we run and utilize there. As far as the utility utilization, it's mostly household scale. We just have two bathrooms that are given in the facility. It won't have any effect on the water table. And it's all going to be done with a private septic and ant well that's already located on the property from a house that burned down a few years ago. And as far as septic load goes, it's only going to be for bathrooms.

There's no other industrial activities or materials or anything like that that needs to be disposed of or handled.

Either path, whether we go the industrial route on this or business, I think fits within the county's vision. They already have it in the comp plan as a non-residential plot up there to be potentially utilized for business. The adjacent land is already zoned as business. And all the impacts will be held to business levels, such as dust, glare, traffic, to ordinary district levels. This here just elaborates out, actually, please go to the next one for me. This here elaborates out, I took some readings from the house over there and the location of the building. So outside of our current shop, on a normal day-to-day, it's not on a major highway, so it's a little bit different. Right outside of our shop is usually 52 dB. Inside the shop, during operations, around 65 dB. And with the business or light industrial zoning, it has a property length cap of 65 dB, so we're far below that already. And then on the highway, at 100 feet away, the average is 76 decibels from the highway. And then peak, when trucks and such go by, is 87 to 100 dB. So the actual chop and utilization there is actually lower noise impact than what the highway is itself that it's located by. These are just actual measured values that we took out there, outside the shop, inside the shop, and then at the actual highway. Just visualize that a little bit differently there. The restrictions that we welcome is the use of being limited and closed inside the facility, the hard cap on noise, the screen setback storage, if any. We discussed maybe a lean-to on the backside of the facility for you know, any type of storage or anything that would be out there. We don't currently have that and don't plan to utilize any of that, but that is part of the, you know, standard business code there. And there's really no greater than typical business uses there in regards to noise, odors, lair, and it doesn't exceed anything above normal for those permitted uses. As far as benefits to the community and county around, It's going to add to the local tax base, keep skilled jobs local. That's a big issue we have in Alpharetta where right now there's just not a lot of skilled labor individuals that are hands on. It'll help strengthen local supply chains. We already are doing work around here for local companies and doing systems for them. And it'll also help a small Georgia business grow. Another point to note here is that I've talked to a few individuals out of Athens Tech as well, due to the fact that they are six minutes away from where the facility is going. The programs that are there that would fit into what we're doing, that we can utilize students, interns for, is their drafting technology, engineering technology, emerging technology systems. So that would be a good outlet for the college, for some individuals for hands-on training there, and for us to be able to partner up with them as well, and for a lot of our neighbors, and for our future kids that are growing up that'll probably be going to Athens Tech you know, a good outlet there for future growth and development in the area. So this is kind of a summary of everything we just went through and went over in regards to all the different impacts that it may have around in the area and all the different, you know, different attributes related to that.

All right. Thank you, sir. Is there any questions from the board? I do have one. You said there's a well there already. Yes, sir. But you also have access to county water, is that correct?

I believe there is now access to county water. It was put in about three months ago from where I saw them running the water line. So I believe that county water is available there as well.

Okay. Do you know how much water you'd be using?

It would be no more than normal household usage, which I think is usually around 30 to 40 gallons per day. The only thing that we would be utilizing water for would be for the bathrooms that are there. And then we have two CMCs that use coolant water mixture in those. We usually have to put about 10 to 15 gallons a week of water in those machines. And how big is your, how many square feet would your factory be? The proposed building is 6,000 square feet, 60 by 100.

And there's no chimney stacks, nothing like that.

All right, any further questions? I guess one comment. We just had one a few weeks ago that we recommended a lot of industrial. I guess the reason this was brought up You're familiar with the comp plan, I'm sure. Yes. You've heard about the comp plan. And in this particular area, the comp plan recommends business and not industrial. And I think the discussion was that even though this is, I guess, considered light industrial, it also falls kind of under the business category. So therefore, in order to make it fit, That's when the conversation came up to changing the business rather than mining. Am I correct, Mike? Yes, sir. So we have to work with several different aspects. We have to work with the comp plan. We have to work with how things result. So any other questions, comments? Thank you, sir. Thank you. All right, we will open up the public hearing. Does anyone want to speak in favor of this particular request to be dismissed? Hearing none, does anyone want to speak in opposition? Please come forward.

David Carey, 76 Madeline Court, Hull. First, I'd like to welcome Mr. Spencer as our District 3 representative. Mr. Spencer, you, as have you all, have taken on a very hard and important job that will shape our county for years to come, and thank you for assuming that responsibility. I'm a little confused here. I would want to you can clarify to me is this going to be strictly business or is this going to be industrial? Which way is it going to go?

If this is approved it will be business.

Business, okay. My presentation here is in opposition to the industrial zoning. If it's not going to be industrial then I have no opposition.

What's before this board tonight is to make This request, business, not industrial. Okay. All right.

Well, I have a presentation as to why it should not be industrial, but if it's business, I have a problem.

All right, sir. Well, before you go, is there any questions for both of these gentlemen?

No, I just think we're, you know, we're caught between business and industrial. You know, when I think, when people think of industrial, we think of big stamping machines, you know, billowing smoke coming out of chimneys and it leads to a very rough identification to people and that business is more gentle.

Maybe I should give you my presentation so you'll understand my point of view. While the stated manufacturing operation described seems innocuous enough, It is the resigning to industrial that I think must be resisted. I'm sure all of you serving on this board are more familiar with the Madison County Competency Plan than I. But it plainly states that the Dawesburg area, in fact its entire south Madison County area, should be kept as residential and commercial. That's referenced on page 54 and 57. That means no industrial. No I-1, I-2, I-3, or I-P. if you're going to switch over to the more defined definition of industrial. And this operation, in my opinion, falls under industrial in 7.9.1.7. It does not fall under business. The previously denied industrial rezone request will be cleared to reapply under the new coding system, and soon there will be I-1 and I-2 properties all over the Augsburg area if this change is approved industrially. As stated in the narrative, this would also be a spot zone, which I feel is a terrible idea. It would create an area of dramatically different usage within the surrounding properties and prevent the development of a well-thought-out, cohesive plan, which I know is the goal of this board. But more than that, if you open that industrial door, there is no closing, no matter what industrial tier level. If this business fails in the future or is not even constructed after rezone, the land would still be zoned industrial. That would be open to numerous enterprises which could present hazardous conditions due to either processes or products used or produced at that site. Reports of leaks and explosions at supposedly safe and permitted industrial facilities are seen often. with citizens asking how could it have happened so near their home? It happened because it was zoned to allow. The proximity of this property to a school, a trailer park, and a large subdivision is an invitation to disaster if the rezoning allowed the eventual use beyond what is presented in this application. It would be naive to think it could not happen. In this case, an individual property owner who may be well-intentioned must realize that zoning codes are in place to protect the greater good of the community and those who actually live here for the long term. Also to provide a more planned and effective development for the county. In this future development of our county, the safety and quality of life of citizens should be foremost in decisions made using the existing, well-thought-out, comprehensive plan and using it with consistency. I know this board is always working to make the best decisions for the benefit of all our fellow citizens, and I trust you will do so again here tonight.

Thank you. Thank you, sir. And just as a comment, I will appreciate you putting that together. I think that's why this board is considering what they're considering because of Those things that you just stated. All right. Any further, anybody else want to object or... If not, I'll bring it back before the board and I'll entertain a motion. What's the condition?

Let's see if African wants to do any rebuttal.

You want to do rebuttal? All right.

Okay.

We'll bring it back before the board for any further discussion and I'll entertain a motion to approve, to deny, or approve with conditions.

Since this is a unique situation that the applicant applied for industrial, I thought that was the thing to do, but since it's been discussed to change it to business instead, with that said, do we just make a motion to resign it to business and that's it?

It would be business with these set of conditions, and I don't know if, Tracy, did you distribute the resolutions of the board? Yes, we did. And so that set of conditions would work either with industrial or business. It's basically to define, as you said, it's to address exactly what Mr. Carey presented very eloquently. So the conditions under either zoning, would it help to just leave these out loud to everyone? Yeah, sure. So the conditions would be the uses are restricted to either or both of the following. A, uses that support flex space, warehouse, distribution, light manufacturing, storage, and service commercial developments of low to mid-scale intensity. Uses must be operated so that noise, odor, dust, and glare of such operations are primarily defined within enclosed buildings. B, those uses otherwise permitted by right without a conditional use permit or conditionally business of the district. 2. Any outdoor storage of equipment, mobility, and materials must meet the following requirements. A. Outdoor storage must be located in the rear yard and not abutting in the residential district. B. Outdoor storage must be located 50 feet from any property line. C. The stored items must be screened from view by a two-panel or freestanding wall not less than six feet in height. 3. Noise emitting from the property as measured at the property lines with adjacent parcels shamanic seed with an eight-weighted continuous sound level of 65 for any five-minute measurement interval. And that's taken from, you may recall, a few years ago, the county commissioning engineering firm to do a proposed noise ordinance. It was never adopted, but that is the level that the engineering firm recommended for business adjoining residents. And for noise, odor, dust, trash, and glare levels arising from operations on the property, shamanic seed levels typically encounter in connection with other permitted or conditional uses in the business zoning district. And to sort of explain the background behind this, and you've already explained it, but go a little deeper. It's that word, I think, manufacturing, that sort of creates an ambiguity here. If you apply these conditions, then you're keeping all of the environmental effects of those on adjacent parcels to the levels of the business district. It's just sort of a semantics within our zoning ordinance. But these conditions are designed to make sure, as a matter of fact, if you look at some of the uses that are permitted by right in the business district, they would have, seems to me, impacts beyond those described for this business. But these conditions would make sure that those levels are maintained, regardless of who owns it or what it's used for.

All right. Thank you, Ms. Crook. Any further discussion or more?

I'd like a motion to approve this with conditions.

All right, we have a motion to approve this request as a business. All right, there's a second. I'll second. I'll second. Any further comments? All right, Guy, please move. Yes. Yes.

Yes.

All right. We will recommend to the Board of Commissioners that this be approved as business. There will be another public hearing on July the 6th. I would suggest that the applicant be here and you, sir, please come also.

Yeah, I never miss it.

And Mr. Catlett, I would encourage you to contact the county if you want to provide the same presentation at the board commissioner meeting, her name is Christina Baxter and she would be the person to get that on for you. Sounds great, thank you.

All right, moving on, number seven.

Number six.

Number six, I'm sorry.

Albaran and Paula Rodriguez are requested to re-vote a 1.507 acre portion from A2 to R1 to split and gift their son and to re-own their remaining 6.493 acres from A2 to AR to retain and to bring the property into compliance with zoning regulations. The property is located at 2451 Hardman Morris Road in Colbert on Mount 59, parcel 96K in District 5.

All right. Rodriguez, just come forward. Anything you want to add to that?

Only I want to add is that I want to help my son to put his mobile home for him and his family to have a place of their own.

Any questions from Rodriguez? So how many buildings are on your property at the moment?

It's a mobile home and a shop.

And how big is the shop? 20 by 20. 20 by 20. So there's buildings on the right and on the left as well?

On the right, right here, is the shop.

Yes.

There's the house that we currently live in.

Yeah. And on the left side?

It's the pool.

And there's nothing else by the pool?

No.

OK. Yeah, I saw the pool.

Thank you.

OK. Any further questions?

Can you sense the new property lines are pretty close to the pool and the small buildings that are outlined on the plot there. Do you know where the septic lines are? Are there any other septic lines other than for the mobile home? No, that's it.

That's it?

No crossing of the property lines with septics?

And the pool is quite a small pool. How big is the pool?

Ten feet by ten feet, right? I'm not sure.

Okay, are you thinking that there will be some interference, or what? I was just wondering, you know, the property line gets quite close to the pool, then.

And pools only have to be at 10 feet from property line. So it does meet the regulations.

All right, okay. Any further questions? Thank you, ma'am. All right, we'll open the public ears. Anyone wants to speak in favor of this reasonable request? Please come forward, state your name, and tell us what you want us to know.

I'm Nicole Bloom. I'm a Jason neighbor, and I don't see where putting a home where they're wanted at place would be of any problems to anybody in the neighborhood. All right.

Did you sign his name? I did. I did, thank you.

question you say you're a neighbor like on which side from the road on the right side okay there's no problem we'll set back to anything about wrong nature mr. right okay no problem all right anyone else wants to speak your favor anyone speak in opposition Hearing none, we'll close the public hearing, and I'll bring it back to the entire motion. I'll make a motion to approve. I'll motion to approve. Second. Second by I. Any further comments or questions? All right, where are we? Yes, yes.

Yes, yes.

All right. We will recommend to the Board of Commissioners that this be approved. The next public hearing will be July the 6th. Right here. All right. We have number seven and number eight.

Actually, seven, eight, and nine need to be taken up just one day. I will say they're all contingent upon each other, although 7 and 8 is owned by Mr. Vickery. Item number 9 is owned by his granddaughter and her father. So is that okay to take it up as one vote like that, Mike?

Oh yeah, sure. Okay. I think this one, I didn't go back over it in the last minute, but I think just like you said, it sort of dictates that it would make no sense to approve some and not others.

Right, I gotcha. Okay. So... I'll just read all of the requests. John Vickery is requesting to rezone the 3.62 acre portion from A2 to R1 for a standalone track and he's requesting to rezone the remaining 1.17 acres from A2 to AR to combine with his adjoining AR zone property. which is on map 45 parcel 73 for a total of 4.83 acres. Property is located at 1273 Jack Sharp Road in Colbert on map 45 parcel 76 in District 5. And the second one is John Vickery is requesting to re-own a .54 acre portion of his property from AR to R1 to combine with his granddaughter's adjoining property, which is Mount 45, parcel 72, to allow an existing barn to be added to her property. The remaining acreage will remain in the AR zone. The property is located at 188 Vickrey Lane in Colbert on Mount 45, parcel 73, in District 5. And the next is Curtis and Kelly Daniel, are requesting to rezone their 2.70 acres from A2 to R1 to allow a .54 acre portion from adjoining property, Mount 45, parcel 73, with an existing barn to be combined into the property for a total of 3.24 acres and to bring the property into compliance with zoning regulations. This property is located at 1339 Jack Sharp Road in Colbert on Mount 45, parcel 72 in District 5.

All right. Thank you, Ms. Percy. Mr. Victory? Victory? Yes, sir.

I want to give to my granddaughter and my daughter the land that So my granddaughter, I'm going to give her the 0.54 acres and the barn to my granddaughter, Kelly Daniel. And then Joan will get the rest of the 3.83 acres, plus back of my property at 1273 Jack Sharp Road, I want to give 1.17 acres to Joan . She already has a house on this original 3.83 acres.

It took a lot to figure all that out. That is true.

All right. At this point, we will open the public hearing. Does anyone here want to speak in favor of these Combine the three zone requests. Hearing none, is there anyone who wants to speak in opposition? Hearing none, we'll close the public hearing and bring it back before the board.
