Commissioners concur with 309.4‑acre Moody Road annexation after split public comment
Summary
The board concurred with Warner Robins' annexation of a 309.4‑acre Moody Road parcel (Tax Parcel 001040 129000) and retained county rights to permit access via Moody Road; three residents spoke in opposition raising drainage and tree‑loss concerns.
Houston County commissioners on Nov. 19 voted unanimously to concur with the City of Warner Robins' request to annex 309.4 acres on Moody Road (Tax Parcel 001040 129000). The motion, restated to clarify access language, specifies that "the County will retain the rights to permit access via Moody Road." The zoning would change from County R‑1 & R‑AG to City R‑2.
The board opened the floor for public comment; Chad Bryant of Bryant Engineering spoke in favor of the annexation and zoning change, while Rick Franklin, Kima Poole, and David Shiplett spoke in opposition, raising concerns about stormwater runoff, drainage, and loss of trees. County Attorney Tom Hall explained the county's limited role in concurring with city annexations but said the county can seek alignment with its Comprehensive Plan. Commissioner Talton moved to concur and Commissioner Byrd seconded; the motion carried unanimously.
