Board adopts UDO updates and capital improvement expenditure document
Summary
Staff presented updates to the Unified Development Ordinance (permitted uses, manufactured home rules, added prohibitions including high-energy data mining) and the board adopted the capital improvement expenditure document so the county can submit it to the Department of Community Affairs to maintain QLG status.
County planning staff summarized multiple UDO updates: additions to permitted-use tables (e.g., commercial livestock/poultry in industrial designations), an updated Manufactured Home Units ordinance, new items for the prohibited home-occupation list (including high-energy cryptocurrency/data-mining operations), changes to public hearing notice time windows, and updates to final-approval procedures for major subdivisions.
Staff said separate data center ordinances remain in development and are expected to come before the board in December. The board also voted to adopt the county's Capital Improvement Expenditure Document so Troup County can forward it to the Georgia Department of Community Affairs and maintain its Qualified Local Government status.
