**Body:** KnowPickens

**Jurisdiction:** SLED

The Pickens County Planning Commission met October 13, 2026, and considered two zoning applications. For RZ191208, Big South Real Estate Holdings LLC requested rezoning a 3.29-acre parcel at 734 Harmony School Road from rural residential to highway business to create three commercial building lots and convert the existing residence to office use. Staff recommended conditional approval, citing nearby highway-business zoning and commercial uses along the corridor. The applicant stated that city water was already connected and would be shared with the new buildings. The commission voted to recommend approval to the Board of Commissioners.

For RZ191231, Adriana Phillips requested a division and rezoning of agricultural land to create two estate-residential lots totaling about 9.25 acres and one rural-residential lot of about 3.18 acres, while keeping roughly 2.75 acres agricultural to combine with a neighboring parcel. Staff recommended approval, finding the proposal consistent with the area’s rural character and unlikely to significantly affect infrastructure or surrounding property values. The commission approved the recommendation. No procurement, contract, or spending activity was identified.
