Plans for new elementary school in PTC to be considered Monday By JOHN
MUNFORD Plans for a new elementary school in north Peachtree City on Crabapple Lane will be revisited by the Peachtree City Planning Commission at its regular meeting Monday night. The meeting will be held at the Floy Farr room downstairs at the Peachtree City Library due to renovations at City Hall, though it will begin at 7 p.m. as usual. At its last meeting, the commission rebuffed the plan, asking school officials to improve the buffering between the school and an adjacent residence. The original plan had only a six-foot vinyl-coated chain link fence separating the two properties. The school will be located at the intersection of Crabapple Lane and Ga. Highway 74, across the highway from the Kedron Village retail center. Planning commissioners asked school officials to consider rotating the layout of the school to create more room for a buffer. But significant sloping on the land created problems with that concept. The commission will also consider a conceptual plat for the Lexington Place subdivision on Walt Banks Road and a landscape plan for the second phase of the Curtis-Gross Medical Complex on Shakerag Hill.
