This is Bull SH*%!!!! This area of Peachtree City is one of the only areas which is zoned as estate residential within the city limits and someone wants to let that go?? Come on!! Too bad there is very little developable residential land left with in the city limits. I hope the City Council or someone steps up to the plate with some balls and tells these developers its just too bad, they are too late, its all gone. None of this redevelopment game. No means no. Just like I tell my own children!!!
Furthermore, Ashton Park has families with children who attend the schools. I know of two familes with children who reside in that neighborhood. YOUR WRONG MR GIBSON, GEORGIA CLASSIC HOMES!!!!!

Redevelopment. This is a topic that has been circulating among the city power brokers for a while. In fact its was tossed out to the candidates that were running to fill the vacated council seat of Judi Ann Rutherford (Mike Harmon won that seat). While I think that some redeveolpment needs to be done in PTC, it should not be done in this area and not at this density. Why should this part of town look like Ashton Park? Whats wrong with the way it looks now? The diversity is what makes PTC so attractive. And if I want a home built on less than a third of an acre I can find those too.
If we seriously want to talk about redevelopment why not begin with offering homeowners (and landlords)in the older parts of the city, where the homes are beginning to look dated and run down, some low interest, "City Backed" construction loans or property tax credits to be used only for home and property upgrades? Now how to best arrange and oversee this program is another topic but I'm sure it could done and the benefits to the area property values would allow for better assesments and ultimately higher tax revenues for the city. You would be amazed at what a new roof, new siding, a new deck or landscaping would do for some of these properties. The time is rapidly approaching where we can not build anymore homes so it is imperative that the keep up the ones that we have.

other thing. Just went to the city website to check out the plan. This is not proposed for a 14 acre tract, but 11.5 acres.

and move on. No need to even consider a zoning change in this area.

Am I misunderstanding something? I thought we had hit capacity. Final build out and all that. 35,000 residences for the city. So if we have the maximum amount of housing, knocking down 3 houses on 14 acres to build 45 new homes? How about individual homeowners remodel their homes and bring values up that way, instead of knocking down very nice homes to build cookie cutter new ones? Build character and interest in the older homes. How much bigger does PTC need to be? There are many homes on the market in town as it is. Work on relocating solid businesses to Fayette county, so we don't have to commute to Atlanta or higher to afford our homes and lifestyle choices. Better for the kids too if mom and dad are closer to home to hopefully keep an eye on them. Yea, I'm talking about those Kedron kids.

The water will come from where???

Replace 3 homes with 45?? Oh yeah, that is the best idea for conserving water I have heard yet.

My trees are thristy.....have to go, before your cluster home people waste water my trees need.
