Warehouse Rezoning Decision Delayed By Douglasville City Council: Report
City council members voted to send a rezoning proposal allowing three new warehouses on Highway 5 back to the Planning Commission.
DOUGLASVILLE, GA — A proposed rezoning that would allow three new warehouses on Highway 5 has been sent back to the Douglasville Planning Commission, according to the Douglas County Sentinel.
Council members made the decision via a vote last week after Zoning Administrator Ryan Anderson told the council that state law requires a Developments of Regional Impact (DRI) study to be completed before council can consider the request, the Sentinel reported.
Some citizens have spoken out against the warehouse development, citing traffic concerns.
