Planning Commission Meeting

The Paulding County, Georgia, Planning and Zoning Commission meeting on October 28, 2026, considered land-use applications for recommendation to the Board of Commissioners, which was scheduled to review them on November 10. The commission unanimously recommended approval of application 2026-05-SUP by Towers LLC/Vertical Bridge for a 175-foot monopole telecommunications tower on Pleasant Hill Baptist Church property, with Verizon as the initial carrier and capacity for two additional users. The applicant described a wireless coverage gap and proposed a backup generator; a nearby resident raised concerns about visibility, tree removal, alternatives, and ordinance compliance. The discussion involved zoning and development requirements, not a public contract or purchase. The commission also unanimously recommended approval of application 2026-06-SUP to relocate Aegis Arts Tattoo, subject to two staff stipulations.

For application 2026-07-SPSA, the commission unanimously recommended approval of a site-plan amendment, retaining the original rezoning stipulations and adding a front-setback modification tied to side-entry garages on 75% of the lots. The transcript’s motion wording is somewhat unclear on whether the 20-foot setback applies to all or only some lots. An application by Prime Tower was postponed at the applicant’s request. No procurement awards, spending approvals, or vendor selections were identified.
