Board approves rezoning of 4 acres at 78 Thompson Road to limited commercial
Summary
The Troup County Board of Zoning Appeals and Planning Commission approved first-reading rezoning of a 4‑acre portion of a 22.81‑acre parcel at 78 Thompson Road from Lakeside Residential to Limited Commercial, with conditions requiring permits, site plans and a plat submittal for staff approval.
The Troup County Board of Zoning Appeals and Planning Commission voted July 9 to approve a first‑reading rezoning request to change a 4‑acre portion of a 22.81‑acre parcel at 78 Thompson Road from Lakeside Residential to Limited Commercial.
A staff member described the request in detail: "The applicant has requested the rezoning of a 4 acre portion of a 22.81 acre parcel from Lakeside Residential to Limited Commercial." The staff report noted the parcel formerly hosted a business through 2012 and that notice was published and a sign posted. Staff advised that approval should include conditions that the applicant obtain required permits and site plans and submit the plat for staff approval before development proceeds.
No members of the public spoke against the rezoning during the hearing. After brief board questions confirming the request is limited to a 4‑acre cutout of the larger parcel, a motion to approve the application carried; the board conditioned approval on compliance with the submitted plan, acquisition of all permits and presentation of the plat for staff sign‑off. The board moved on to the next agenda item following the vote.
