Packet: Rezonings Loch Laurel Road subdivision & Pine Grove Road townhouses; TIA Orr Road Extension @ LCC 2024-09-09

We will see how irrelevant the Planning Commission is.

The preceding GLPC meeting was cancelled due to lack of a quorum, yet the two county rezonings are on this Lowndes County Commission agenda for a decision this week. If the County Commission decides without hearing from the Planning Commission, that will be quite interesting.

Since both rezonings get Public Hearings, you can stand up and speak during those, without waiting for the Citizens Wishing to Be Heard ghetto at the end of the meeting.

Also on the agenda is Orr Road Extension, P.I. 0016273 – Transportation Improvement Act (TIA) Project Agreement, for $1,175,000. That’s in addition to the previous TIA projecta:

  • $2,400,000 Clyattstone and Simpson Road Grading, Drainage, Base, and Paving
  • $3,750,000 Hightower Road and Cooper Road NE Paving Project

Which totals to $7,325,000 in TIA money for just these three road projects. Sure, that’s state money, but it’s still your tax dollars.

Here is the agenda.

The board packet is on the LAKE website.
