Paulding County board corrects executive-session purpose, adopts resolution and approves small rezoning with pigs excluded
Summary
The board amended resolution language to confirm an executive session for real estate and litigation and adopted it. The commission approved a rezoning application (2026-01-Z) for 8.89 acres to A-1 agricultural for chickens and livestock; a commissioner clarified the rezoning specifically excludes pigs.
The Paulding County Board of Commissioners amended and adopted a resolution confirming an executive session for the purpose of "real estate and litigation," after a commissioner noted the agenda item incorrectly listed "personnel." The chair accepted the correction, a motion to approve the corrected resolution was made and seconded, and the chair called for an "Aye" vote.
Later in the meeting, the board considered Planning Commission referral 2026-01-Z, an application from Jennifer Fitzpatrick to rezone 8.89 acres from R-2 (suburban residential) to A-1 (agricultural) to permit chickens and certain livestock on property described as Land Lot 178, District 19, Section 3, South of Willow Springs Road (92 Whipple/Whipple Wheel Path). Speaker 6 explicitly clarified that the rezoning excludes pigs. Following that clarification, a motion to approve the rezoning was made, seconded, and the chair called for the vote; the chair announced 'Aye.'
The record shows the correction to the resolution’s stated executive-session purpose and the explicit exclusion of pigs in the rezoning motion. The transcript does not include the full roll-call tally by name for each vote in the record.
