Chatham County commissioners approve rezoning to allow apartment complex in Baldwin Township
Summary
The board approved a legislative rezoning request by Catalyst Capital Partners LLC to rezone two parcels from R-2 to a conditional district mixed-use (CDMU) to permit an apartment development with commercial space; the motion included the consistency statement and carried without a recorded roll-call tally.
Chatham County commissioners voted Jan. 16 to approve a legislative rezoning request from Catalyst Capital Partners LLC to rezone two parcels in Baldwin Township from R-2 (residential) to a conditional district mixed-use (CDMU) designation to allow an apartment development with associated commercial space.
The motion, made and seconded during the County Board meeting, included the required consistency statement. The board chair announced, “The motion carries,” after no recorded opposition was identified on the record.
The application sought rezoning of parcels identified in the application as 2547 and 2647 to permit apartments with an amenity building, a pool and approximately 15,000 square feet of commercial space. Commissioner Delaney moved the item off the consent agenda for discussion; another commissioner spoke in favor of recognizing the role of apartments in expanding housing options and moved to approve the rezoning as described in the application.
The board did not state a roll-call vote tally on the record. Staff confirmed the motion included both the rezoning and the consistency statement.
The planning and zoning record for the application (including the rezoning ordinance language and any proffers or conditions) will remain with county planning staff and the item will proceed in accordance with standard post-approval processes.
Votes at the meeting on this item were announced verbally; no detailed roll-call vote was read into the public record during the meeting.
