Summary

The Board approved a proposed unified development ordinance text amendment that changes the minimum lot size in the R-55 (active adult residential) district from 8,000 to 10,000 square feet.

Paulding County commissioners voted to approve a proposed text amendment to the Unified Development Ordinance that raises the minimum lot size in the R-55 (active adult residential) district from 8,000 square feet to 10,000 square feet.

The amendment was presented as part of a broader set of UDO changes to chapters and sections governing administration, zoning districts, overlay districts, dimensional standards, off-street parking and traffic memo contents. A commissioner moved to approve the proposed text amendment as drafted but specifically change the R-55 minimum lot size from 8,000 to 10,000 square feet; the board approved the motion by voice vote.

The text amendment will be incorporated into the county’s Unified Development Ordinance appendix and will affect future development proposals in the R-55 district. Staff did not read additional technical edits into the audio excerpt; the board adopted the change as presented.
