The board voted to approve Rezone 2025‑002, which seeks to change roughly 2.9 acres on Dooley Town Road from agricultural to R‑1 (low‑density single‑family residential) to permit a lot division.

Zack Garrett (speaker 10), the surveyor who designed the plat, told commissioners he grew up in Barrow County and was available to answer technical questions. Planning staff and the planning commission recommended approval with three conditions included in the packet. The motion to approve followed staff recommendations and passed by voice vote.

The item was uncontested at the hearing; no speakers appeared in opposition. The approval allows the applicant to proceed with subdivision steps and plat recording subject to the listed staff conditions and county permitting.
