Still invisible: the change to Valdosta’s Withlacoochee River Wastewater Treatment Plant. Documents related to all the other items are inked into the agenda in a previous post.
Moody AFB speaking about proposed Lowndes County MAZ ULDC text amendments
An invisible change to Valdosta’s
Withlacoochee River Wastewater Treatment Plant.
Already
a subdivision rezoning after the old US 41 N widening.
And still going in its third year, the
Moody Activities Zones (MAZ) Text Amendments,
with
updates last week,
including
the Chamber’s latest position,
all on top of
the previous updates.
Those are just the
Lowndes County cases on the
agenda tonight for the Greater Lowndes Planning Commission (GLPC).
The six Valdosta cases include a funeral home, a radio station, a church accessory, a community commercial rezoning, an amendment to a Planned Development, and City of Valdosta sign regulations changes.
All that plus Continue reading
Updates about Moody, Tillman Crossing, and the Withlacoochee River Wastewater Treatment Plant,
for tonight’s Planning Commission meeting, received after last week’s GLPC Work Session.
I would post tonight’s GLPC agenda, but it’s not on the county’s website.
See the surprise addition in this update of REZ-2015-20 City of Valdosta WWTP, about which details were not included: “The proposed site plan is the same one that was presented to you with your paperwork last night.” So if you’re not a Planning Commissioner, you don’t get to see what the City of Valdosta is proposing for its new Withlacoochee River Wastewater Treatment Plant.
Another item is apparently known by several names: Continue reading
Gretchen filed an open records request for all the natively-electronic
materials from the board packet,
especially including
the list of the Commission’s own goals,
but
all we got was the one rezoning item,
REZ-2015-02 Devine
for the
23 February 2015 Work Session
of the Lowndes County Commission.
At least they sent that much by email,
but even so it’s missing important information that I wonder if the Commissioners noted wasn’t there before they voted.
New material in here, different from Continue reading
Nothing was said about the
GA HB 170 state tax grab from local governments,
even though both school boards and the Valdosta City Council
already passed resolutions against it.
No citizens spoke about animals, or about anything else,
not even in the Public Hearings,
except for
me thanking the Commission about the Naylor Boat Ramp.
The Devine Subdivision at Tillman Crossing was tabled at request of applicant to try to sort out continuing concerns about safety and congestion, while REZ-2015-01 Gramercy 2 and REZ-2015-03 Scurry Property, were unanimously approved. No citizens spoke for or against any of them.
You the taxpaying public didn’t get to see any of the materials in the board packet beyond the one-page agenda item forms, before the Commission voted last night, unless you were in the Commission Chambers or watched the LAKE videos of yesterday morning’s Work Session. The open records request for those rezonings came back with paper maps, despite my request for electronic format; at least the paper maps were in color this time. I asked again for electronic format, and will post them soon even if I have to scan them. The other open records request, for maps and materials for the engineering agenda items, came back with no maps at all, so I sent it back to be satisfied. Both County Planner Jason Davenport and County Engineer Mike Fletcher said they had never seen those open records requests, and they’d both be happy to email electronic copy if they were authorized to do so by the County Clerk.
All the other items were unanimously approved: Continue reading
The only rezoning to get much time was the
Devine Subdivision at Tillman Crossing,
at this morning’s Work Session of the Lowndes County Commission.
Maps were displayed for that and
REZ-2015-01 Gramercy 2
and
REZ-2015-03 Scurry Property,
but the board packet is still not on the county’s website.
I filed an open records request, asking for them to be emailed,
and got a telephone callback saying they were ready for pickup,
which means I won’t get them until tomorrow, and you may not
see them until after tomorrow evening’s voting Regular Session.
Tuesday evening there will be Continue reading
This agenda includes links to the Commission Agenda Item form for each item!
That’s not all yet, since it does not link to the numerous maps
and other materials for each of the three rezoning items, for example.
But it’s progress!
And the meeting dates also now appear.
Good show!
Also the name of the engineering firm is in the document for
Professional Surveying and Engineering Services for Naylor Boat Ramp.
See also the LAKE videos of the 26 January 2015 Planning Commission meeting for background on the three rezonings, which are in this LCC agenda as REZ-2015-01 Gramercy 2, Old Pine Rd, R-1 to R-10, Water and Sewer, ~4.1 acres, REZ-2015-02 Devine Subdivision, Tillman Crossing Rd, R-1 to R-10, Water and Sewer, ~24 out of ~72 acres, and REZ-2015-03 Scurry Property, Skipper Bridge Rd, R-A to R-1, Well and Septic, ~1.97 acres, plus Public Hearing fo the Abandonment of Deloach Road E (CR 95).
Proposals are also in this agenda for Preliminary Engineering Services for Exit 22 and 29 Utility Relocations, Professional Surveying and Engineering Services for Naylor Boat Ramp, and Proposal for Bridge Foundation Investigation for Morven Road Bridge Replacement, plus a 2015 Public Defender Services Contract & 2015 Operating Contract.
