Planning Commission approves Compton Bell Farms expansion, updates hours and conditions
Summary
Hall County commissioners approved an amendment to expand Compton Bell Farms' agri‑entertainment operations and revised hours; the approval included variances carried from a prior county commission decision and periodic license review.
The Hall County Planning Commission voted 5-0 on Feb. 3 to approve an amendment allowing Compton Bell Farms to expand seasonal attractions and formalize new operating hours.
Keith Bell, the applicant, confirmed revised hours: "the hours of the venue would change to Sunday to Wednesday 9 am to 8 pm and Thursday to Saturday 8 am to 11 pm." The commission approved the special use with conditions that incorporate the November 21, 2024 site plan and December 3, 2024 narrative, retain variances reduced previously by the county commission, require Gateway Corridors Overlay District standards for non‑residential development (with limited gravel parking permitted), and schedule a business license review before the Planning Commission and Board of Commissioners three years after the prior county commission action.
