Bulloch County Planning & Zoning Commission August 19th, 2025 5:30 PM

The Bulloch County Planning & Zoning Commission held a meeting on August 19, 2025, to review multiple land use and development applications, including rezoning requests, sketch plans, and conditional use permits. Key procurement-related discussions involved recommendations on subdivision plans, rezoning of parcels for residential development, and conditional use approvals for self-storage units and an event venue. The commission recommended denial of a rezoning request for duplex units on Miller Street Extension and a conditional use permit for an event center on Old Deal Road due to community concerns about density, noise, and impact on rural character. They approved a sketch plan for a 21-lot residential subdivision on Old Rigs Mill Road with a condition to include a backup generator for the community well. The commission also discussed and approved text amendments related to subdivision design standards, accessory dwellings, architectural requirements, and conservation subdivisions to guide future development and infrastructure requirements. Several motions were passed to recommend approvals or denials to the county commissioners, with final decisions scheduled for September 2, 2025.
