Planning & Zoning board may shrink from seven to five after quorum problems

Commission of the Unified Government of Cusseta-Chattahoochee County, Georgia · July 1, 2025

Summary

Planning & Zoning informed the county manager it is struggling to maintain a quorum; the Commission asked the county attorney to review whether the board size can be changed by ordinance or requires charter amendment and added the item to the next work session.

The county's Planning & Zoning board has repeatedly struggled to assemble a quorum, prompting the board to ask the Commission whether it may reduce membership from seven to five. "They are struggling now with getting a full quorum," County Manager Thomas Weaver told commissioners and asked the attorney to research whether the charter or an ordinance change is required.

Commissioners agreed to add the matter to the next Work Session for a legal review by County Attorney Bin Minter and potential action. Commissioner Damon Hoyte expressed that applicants should be considered for current openings, but the Commission flagged quorum reliability as the central issue for deliberation.
