Draft Group Home Ordinance presented; commissioners to decide zoning

Ben Hill County Commissioners · January 24, 2019

Summary

County Manager Michael Dinnerman said an attorney prepared a draft Group Home Ordinance and asked commissioners to consider and determine appropriate zoning classifications before further action.

County Manager Michael Dinnerman told commissioners at the January 24, 2019 workshop that an attorney has prepared a draft Group Home Ordinance and that the board needs to determine which zoning districts should permit group homes.

Dinnerman presented the ordinance draft as an item requiring policy direction from the board; the minutes record that the ordinance was prepared by the attorney but do not specify recommended zoning classifications or next steps for public hearings or formal adoption.

The minutes provide no vote or formal direction recorded at the workshop. The commissioners will need to decide zoning categories and any procedural steps—such as public notice, hearings, or ordinance readings—before an ordinance could be adopted.
