Planning Meeting July 8, 2026

The Putnam County Planning Commission held a public hearing on July 8, 2026, to review land use and zoning applications. The primary procurement-related discussions involved a proposed small-scale future land use map amendment and concurrent rezoning request by PC Pressure Washing LLC to change a 1.4-acre property in Satsuma from rural residential to commercial general (C-3) to develop a boat and RV storage facility. Staff recommended denial of both the future land use amendment and rezoning due to incompatibility with the county's comprehensive plan and surrounding residential uses. The commission heard public opposition citing concerns about increased traffic, noise, and neighborhood character. After deliberation, the commission voted to recommend denial of both applications to the Board of County Commissioners. Additionally, the commission discussed procedural matters regarding the potential election of a new chair and vice chair due to the current chair's extended absence, with a motion passed to have legal and staff guidance presented at the next meeting. No contract awards, RFPs, or budget allocations were discussed.
