Development moratorium would affect Monday planning commission meeting By JOHN
MUNFORD
The Peachtree City Planning Commission will either have an incredibly busy meeting Monday night or a much lighter workload. The agenda consists of three conceptual site plans, four landscape plans, a commercial rezoning request for property at the former entrance to the Wynnmeade subdivision, and several other items. But most if not all of those items could be tabled depending on whether the City Council approved a suggested 90-day moratorium on many development activities at last night's council meeting (a story on the meeting will be available today at www.thecitizennews.com). The 90-day moratorium, as suggested to council, would put all submitted conceptual site plans, rezoning applications and landscape plans on hold, specifically precluding the Planning Commission from acting on any of them. The moratorium would also freeze any concept plats for new subdivisions. If the moratorium is approved, the commission will likely have more time to devote to its update of the city's land use plan, which has been ongoing for the past several months.
