Commission recommends rezoning on Doier Street to permit one duplex
Summary
The Planning Commission recommended approval of a request by John Subtles to rezone a property on Doier Street in Dalton from R3 to R5 so a single duplex could be constructed; staff said water and sewer are available and the lot is sized to support only one duplex.
The Dalton-Whitfield Planning Commission recommended approval of a rezoning request that would change a Doier Street parcel in Dalton from R3 (medium-density single-family) to R5 (rural residential), allowing one duplex unit on the lot.
Staff explained R3 permits site-built single-family detached dwellings, while R5 allows manufactured homes and duplexes in limited circumstances; the petitioner, John Subtles, said his intent is to build one duplex. "If that's all I can do, that's I'm just doing one," Subtles said during his remarks.
Calhoun told commissioners water and sewer service is available in the city and that the surrounding area already includes multifamily development, making R5 an acceptable transitional zoning type. No speakers registered opposition. The commission moved, seconded and approved the recommendation; staff will forward the recommendation to the city for final action.
