1. A rezoning from agricultural residential (AR 1) to highway business.
2. A special use permit for fuel sales within the GCOD.
3. A variance to the GCOD standards for parking lot design.

During the meeting, staff recommended approval for the first two requests but advised denial of the variance request. The applicant, Terry Boomer from LJA Engineering, expressed gratitude for the opportunity to present their case and noted that they had been working closely with Hall County staff for approximately six months.

Boomer explained that there had been a recent code change that impacted their project, and he presented a new site plan that accommodates adjustments to the building layout, particularly for the restaurant portion of the development.

The discussions highlighted the ongoing collaboration between the applicant and county staff, as well as the complexities involved in navigating zoning regulations. The commission's decision on the requests will be crucial for the future development of the site, which aims to introduce commercial use and fuel sales to the area. Further deliberations and a final decision are expected in upcoming meetings.
