Summary

The commission reviewed a request to abandon an unopened right-of-way in the Eleanor Drive / South Hills subdivision submitted by David Hammond and Dana Suits; staff outlined the application and said it would seek a quitclaim deed from the county attorney if the commission approves.

The Bradley County Planning Commission reviewed a request from David Hammond and Dana Suits to abandon an unopened right-of-way in the Eleanor Drive (South Hills) subdivision.

Planning staff described the process and materials submitted: a $75 application fee and a plan showing the portion of the right-of-way to be divided between adjacent lots. Staff said the right-of-way is unopened and the proposal would reallocate the right-of-way portions to the adjoining parcels.

Planning staff (identified in the record as Bentley) told the commission, “If you all approve it, I'll go to the county attorney, Christopher Robert, and get her to issue a quick claim deed saying that the county has no interest in it.” The record shows staff will consult the county attorney and prepare a quitclaim deed if the commission votes to approve the abandonment.

No formal roll-call vote on the abandonment request is recorded in the transcript. The commission asked questions of staff and Mr. Thomas provided background on the subdivision and the submitted materials. The commission indicated it would consider the matter under the county’s abandonment process; staff said a 30-day public notice is required for related amendments elsewhere on the agenda.

The item was moved along without a formal outcome recorded in the transcript; future action would be contingent on a formal approval vote by the commission and subsequent county attorney documentation.
