Resident urges county to adopt land-use ordinances for solar farms and bitcoin mines
Summary
A resident told commissioners the county is losing revenue without zoning or ordinances for solar farms and cryptocurrency mining; a commissioner said he will research land-use and re-evaluation matters.
During public input, resident John Mitchell urged the Appling County Board of Commissioners to adopt land-use ordinances and zoning rules, saying the county is losing revenue by not regulating solar farms and bitcoin mining.
Mitchell asked for updates on land-use work and recent re-evaluation efforts affecting property valuations. Commissioner Doug Harris said he had attended a land-use and zoning class and will conduct more research on the topic; no formal direction or ordinance text was adopted at the meeting.
The exchange was recorded in the minutes as a public comment request and a pledge by commissioners to explore the issue further.
