A request to rezone an 88-acre tract off Ga. Highway 74 and south Kedron Drive from industrial to residential use for a 350-home subdivision will be considered by the Peachtree City Planning Commission tonight.

Also on tap is a proposal to annex 35 acres that are currently surrounded by land that was annexed last year off Hwy. 74 and Senoia Road. Referred to as the Hardy/Kidd/Whitlock/Wilks Grove tracts, the site is in between a 380-acre tract and a 400-acre tract that were annexed by the city last year. The tracts border along Senoia Road.

The developer is not requesting a rezoning at this time as no specific project is proposed for the parcel.

The commission meets at 7 p.m. at City Hall.

Also on tonight’s agenda for the planning commission are three conceptual site plans for buildings at the Wilshire Village shopping center: Delta Community Credit Union, Discovery Point Child Development and Autozone.

John Wieland Homes, which owns the 88-acre site, wants to build a 350-unit development on the site, which is located on the west side of Ga. Highway 74 north and directly across from south Kedron Drive. According to a city memo, there are a number of unresolved issues about the proposal so staff doesn't have a formal recommendation on the plan at this time.

Wieland’s initial plan called for 125 single family detached homes, 161 single family attached homes and 58 condominium homes. But the condos will be withdrawn from the plan after some council members expressed concern with that portion of the plan.

Say "NO" is the theme for my posts today.

Stop the Logsdon-Wieland love fest! Peachtree City used to be a nice place to live, but it's falling like a rock.
