Votes and actions: planning commission approves multiple UDO recommendations

Troup County Board of Zoning Appeals and Planning Commission · March 12, 2026

Summary

The commission approved a family-subdivision variance for 151 Tiva Road, approved telecom-siting amendments, and voted to recommend a comprehensive data-center/crypto UDO amendment after one public commenter urged banning cryptocurrency; other UDO edits will be refined and forwarded to the board of commissioners.

At the meeting the commission recorded multiple formal outcomes: it approved a variance allowing a lot split at 151 Tiva Road (after a tied vote was resolved by the presiding officer); it approved a telecommunications amendment to the UDO restoring monopole setback language and application updates; and it voted to recommend a comprehensive UDO amendment establishing siting, utility, buffer, noise and decommissioning rules for data centers and cryptocurrency facilities.

Staff said other UDO edits — including separation of self storage into mini/boat/RV categories and the addition of a wild-game-processing use — will be refined for clarity and forwarded to the board of commissioners. No further public hearings were recorded in this transcript; the commission closed the public hearing and adjourned the meeting.
