Dawsonville City Council advances townhome development with non-unanimous vote
At a meeting of the Dawsonville City Council on Monday night, council members approved a zoning amendment request with a non-unanimous 3-2 vote, allowing the construction of 24 townhomes off Hwy. 9 in Dawsonville.
In its zoning amendment request, Tanco Investments LLC asked the city to rezone 4.09 acres at 315 Hwy. 9 N and 373 Hwy. 9 N from Highway Business District (HB) to Multiple-Family Residential District (R6), to construct a townhome development.
In a previous public hearing at the council’s meeting on Feb. 1, Rachel Burton spoke on behalf of Tanco and explained that the development could consist of 24, 1,260 square foot townhomes. No citizens spoke against the rezoning request at the public hearing.
