Ware County approves rezoning at 801 S. Augusta, other land-use items
Loading...
Summary
The commission approved multiple land-use items including rezoning 801 South Augusta Avenue to mixed use (MU), rezoning a split industrial parcel to C-3 for commercial use, and naming a private driveway 'Todd Lane.'
Planning staff presented three separate land-use items and the commission approved each after brief discussion. For 801 South Augusta Avenue, staff said owners Edward and Andre Lucas requested rezoning from C-2 and C-2 SDD to MU and MU SDD to allow residential uses with an option to return to commercial use later; staff noted the site totals about 0.34 acres and that the Planning Commission approved it at its March 12, 2026 meeting. The commission voted to approve the rezoning by voice vote.
A second item moved remaining portions of a parcel (PN 051 C 05029) from LI (Limited Industrial) to C-3 (General Commercial) to eliminate split zoning around a former Carter Electric site; staff said the change would allow potential commercial development such as a convenience store. The commission approved that request unanimously.
The board also approved naming a private drive within the property of Aaron and Cassidy Todd as "Todd Lane." Staff noted the request had no objections at the Planning Commission and property owners must provide a blue street sign for posting.
Each item had previously passed the Planning Commission on March 12 and returned to the Board of Commissioners with staff recommendations for approval. The motions carried in the regular meeting by recorded voice votes.
