Council votes on rezoning request for Map 056B Parcel 184A; roll-call recorded but full tally not shown
Summary
The Pine Mountain Mayor and Council considered a Town-initiated rezoning of Map 056B Parcel 184A from C-2 (with an existing conditional use) to R-3 with new lot and setback waivers. A motion was moved by Mr. Pound and seconded by Mr. Trott; Ms. Mabry and Mr. Bray voted in favor and Mr. Scott opposed.
The Mayor and Council of the Town of Pine Mountain considered a Town-initiated rezoning for Map 056B Parcel 184A at the April 13, 2026 regular session. The proposal would change the parcel from C-2 with a conditional use to R-3 with the conditional use retained and with a set of special requirements and waivers.
The ordinance text in the agenda and minutes lists the proposed special requirements: a reduced minimum lot area of 10,000 square feet (down from the R-3 standard of 15,000), minimum setbacks (front 20 feet, side 15 feet, street side yard 15 feet, rear 25 feet, corner 20 feet), and construction standards to meet those setbacks. The Town also proposed removing or waiving several standard R-3 requirements, including increasing maximum lot coverage from 30% to 50%, waiving the requirement that each lot abut a public street for at least 50 feet for lots accessed from an easement or private way, and removing prior minimum/maximum square-foot requirements for structures on those lots.
Mr. Pound moved to rezone the property and Mr. Trott seconded the motion. The minutes record that Ms. Mabry and Mr. Bray voted in favor and that Mr. Scott voted against the motion. The transcript records those three named votes but does not list votes by every council member or an explicit recording of the final disposition in the minutes text available.
Why it matters: rezoning the parcel changes allowed housing density and development standards for the site and would enable residential lot configurations that the Town says better align with its zoning scheme. The proposed waivers — especially the increase in allowable lot coverage and the waiver of street frontage requirements for lots served by easements — could affect lot layout, drainage, and access for future development.
Next steps: the meeting minutes do not record a full roll-call tally or an explicit statement that the motion passed or failed beyond the named votes. The record indicates the motion was moved, seconded and three named votes were recorded; the minutes do not show any subsequent challenge or rehearing. If the council or town clerk provides a certified vote tally or an ordinance number later, that will clarify the final legal outcome.
