Tift County manager asks to table rezoning request for Highway 82 West to allow overlay review
Summary
The George Hunt III Family Trust requested rezoning of 7.86 acres on Highway 82 West from AU to GB for a manufactured home sales lot. County Manager Jim Carter asked the board to consider tabling the request until an overlay for the corridor can be created; the planning commission recommended approval and no opposition was recorded at the hearing.
County Manager Jim Carter and Community Development Services Director Chris Davis briefed commissioners about a petition from the George Hunt III Family Trust to rezone 7.86 acres on Highway 82 West from AU (Agriculture) to GB (General Business) to permit a manufactured home sales lot.
Carter recommended the board consider tabling action on the item to allow staff time to develop an overlay for the corridor, noting the parcel does not abut existing GB zoning but the comprehensive plan designates the area as a commercial corridor. The Greater Tift County Planning Commission recommended approval on Aug. 10; workshop minutes record no speakers in opposition at that hearing.
The board indicated it would place the item on the Sept. 11 agenda; Carter’s request to table would be available for the board’s consideration during formal action.
