Summary
The planning commission unanimously recommended approval of a four‑lot subdivision (special use) on a 4.55‑acre assemblage at Old Wilkie Road and Burke Lane after the applicant said soil tests support separate septic systems for each lot.
The Hall County Planning Commission on March 3 recommended approval of a special‑use four‑lot subdivision for properties at 5651 and 5659 Old Wilkie Road and 5602 Burke Lane.
Planning staff recommended approval with five conditions. Applicant Susan Verlander told the commission a soil analysis showed the lots could support individual septic systems, and that the plan would front homes toward the lake with one lot adjacent to Burke Lane but accessed from Old Wilkie Road. "We could potentially create a fourth lot and not disturb items around it," Verlander said; she also provided home‑elevation samples to the planning staff for review.
The commission approved the request unanimously with an added condition that the house elevations submitted at the hearing be subject to approval by the Planning and Zoning Director; the recommendation will be forwarded to the Hall County Board of Commissioners for final action at its April public hearing.
