GAINESVILLE – The Hall County Commission unanimously approved three rezoning applications Thursday evening.
Ridgeline Land Planning: The rezoning application to allow for the construction of 225-townhomes on 40.32-acres along Spout Springs Road near Friendship Road had been facing a lot of opposition from local residents.
In an effort to appease those in opposition the developer downsized the project and tabled the application briefly to try and address neighbors’ complaints.
Still, seven individuals attended the voting session and addressed commissioners, using the full 20-minutes allotted to those speaking in opposition to express their concerns.
Gary Hodges lives in nearby Reunion Subdivision and told commissioners he spoke for a large number of people from several different communities who were unable to attend the voting session in person.
