Long County board approves Sassafrass Subdivision Phase II final plat in 3-2 vote

Long County Board of Commissioners · March 1, 2026

Summary

The Long County Board of Commissioners approved the final plat for Sassafrass Subdivision Phase II by a 3-2 vote on Dec. 3, 2024; Chairman James Craft and Commissioner Jeremy Hall opposed the motion, which otherwise carried.

The Long County Board of Commissioners narrowly approved the final plat for Sassafrass Subdivision Phase II during its Dec. 3, 2024 meeting in Ludowici.

Commissioner Gerald Blocker moved to approve the final plat; Commissioner Robert Parker seconded. The motion passed 3-2, with Chairman James Craft and Commissioner Jeremy Hall recorded as opposed. The minutes do not record the specifics of commissioners' opposition in the public record.

Why it matters: final-plat approval clears a subdivision phase for record and subsequent development actions such as lot sales and permitting. A split vote indicates at least two commissioners had reservations but the motion carried, allowing the subdivision to proceed under local plat-recording processes.

Next steps: The minutes record approval of the final plat but do not list conditions or next administrative steps; typical subsequent actions include filing the recorded plat with the county and developer compliance with approved plat conditions.

Context: The board considered multiple land-use and administrative items at the same meeting, including rezoning requests and a conditional-use permit; the Sassafrass plat vote drew enough dissent to be recorded as a 3-2 outcome.
