Z 2022-29 Beazer Homes LLC Laura Lake has been TABLED by GA Dept of Community Affairs

The 175 acre Beazer Homes LLC rezoning and annexation (Z2022-29) has been Tabled (continued) by the Georgia Department of Community Affairs.  It will not be heard at the Wednesday December 14th City Council Meeting.  Cobb County filed an objection to the annexation and Council may not hear or act on the case until the dispute is resolved.  At the present, the arbitration process is just getting underway. 

Maybe this is an opportunity for Beazer to submit a new, better site design which is less intense and preserves more usable open space.

Here is a wish for Santa- how about Cobb County acquiring at least 30 or 40 acres of the property for passive green space to add to the 61 acres that they now own on the west side of the lake. 

These are ideas worth pursuing and now we have a little time.  This is the last large property on the east side of I-75 and it has a lot of potential.

It never hurts to explore ideas and to dream of what might be possible.  That is how the public acquired Hyde Farm, Bullard Farm and the Tritt property.

We owe it to City and County residents and especially young people to at least make the effort.

As always, updates will be made as needed. 

Seasons Greetings!
