Commission approves paired rezoning requests to permit parcel combination and secure road frontage

Stephens County Planning Commission · March 4, 2025

Summary

Two related rezoning requests were approved and forwarded to the Board: one to rezone a North Hicks Road parcel and another to rezone and split a 64-acre tract, allowing the applicant to obtain the frontage needed for future access and parcel configuration.

The Planning Commission recommended approval of two related rezoning requests that together would allow parcel combination and secure required road frontage for future access.

Staff said the rezoning for Marvin Roach's property on North Hicks Road and the 64-acre parcel applied for by Charles Smith would convert the identified parcels to agricultural residential, touch existing AR zoning, and provide the frontage (approximately 1550 feet noted in discussion) needed at the road if the split and combination occur. Staff recommended approval; the Commission discussed ownership and agent representation questions (Mr. Roach is serving as an authorized agent for Mr. Smith) and confirmed that if the 64-acre split did not occur the parcel would remain residential single. The Commission voted to recommend approval of both rezoning requests and forward them to the Board of Commissioners for final action on March 25.

No public opposition was recorded at the hearing for these items.
