Loading...
Summary
The commission welcomed newly hired planning director Jeremy Gilbert, who outlined his planning experience, and commissioners agreed to schedule a work session with staff and a consultant to finish ordinance amendments and coordinate with county commissioners.
The Upson County Planning Commission formally introduced Jeremy Gilbert as its new planning director during the meeting. Gilbert said he has worked in planning and development for about 23 years, including previous roles as planning and development director for Pike County and positions in Henry County’s code enforcement and planning departments.
Commissioners welcomed Gilbert, discussed the need to finish a draft of proposed ordinance amendments, and agreed to schedule a work session with staff and the commission’s consultant to review those changes. The chair said the commission should complete its portion of the amendments before arranging a joint discussion with county commissioners. No personnel vote or contract action was recorded during the meeting; the introduction was informational.
Next steps: staff and director Gilbert will coordinate to set a date for a work session and circulate a draft of proposed ordinance language to commissioners and the consultant for review.
