Council approves small deannexation at 2209 Chattanooga Road; petitioner plans RV park
Summary
The Dalton mayor and council approved a second-reading deannexation of 0.3 acres at 2209 Chattanooga Road, which planning staff said would not create an island and is being sought by the petitioner to allow an RV park; planning staff and the planning commission recommended approval.
Planning staff told the council on June 15 that MCW, Inc. seeks to deannex a 0.3-acre parcel at 2209 Chattanooga Road (parcel 12-158-01-032) out of the city and into Whitfield County to allow development consistent with adjacent unincorporated property. Staff said the parcel is contiguous with larger unincorporated areas and would not create an island in city boundaries.
The presenter noted the site is currently used as a car lot and that the petitioner seeks to build an RV park on the property. The planning commission and city planning staff recommended approval at their prior meeting. The council moved, seconded and approved the deannexation on second reading.
The council did not record a roll-call tally in the transcript. The decision sends jurisdiction for the parcel to Whitfield County and frees the petitioner to pursue county permitting; final development will be subject to any county land‑use approvals.
