Commission approves rezoning request for portion of Water Street for possible townhomes
Summary
Stewart County commissioners unanimously recommended approval of a rezoning request by Brian Saunders to change a portion of property on Water Street from R-1 to R-3; the applicant was absent and his father represented him at the meeting.
Stewart County commissioners voted unanimously on Feb. 10 to recommend approval of a rezoning request for a portion of property on Water Street, moving the parcel from R-1 to R-3 zoning.
Speaker 1 introduced the item as a rezoning request submitted by Brian Saunders. Speaker 2 told the commission that Saunders had a doctor's appointment and could not attend, and that Saunders' father was present to represent him. According to Speaker 2, “all he wants to do is rezone it right now from R1 r 3. He don't know exactly what he's gonna be. He's probably gonna be townhomes, but he has no plans right now for it.”
The commission discussed adjacency to existing homes and noted one nearby house is a rental; no formal adjacent-owner objections were recorded in the transcript. The motion to recommend approval was made and passed by voice vote; the transcript records the motion as passing unanimously. The applicant must still meet any design, subdivision and permit criteria associated with the R-3 zoning before development can proceed.
No vote tally by name was recorded in the transcript for this item.
