One Valdosta case, for VLDA @ GLPC 2025-02-24

Update 2025-03-25: Videos: One Valdosta case, for VLDA @ GLPC 2025-05-24.

It seems pretty straightforward, the one case on the Monday evening agenda for the Greater Lowndes Planning Commission (GLPC).

The site is at the top of Dukes Bay Canal, but there’s a detention pond next to it.

Evidently VALORGIS needs to update their maps, which are old enough to show no buildings on the site.

Driving by will show you Bimbo QSR’s building, as does googlemaps today.
