We are signing this petition to oppose the Development of 1 and 2 bedroom Apartments(128 units) by "Lab PI Group LLC". The 14.793 acre property(9 usable acres) is located on West Candler Street in Winder, A.K.A. map and Parcel NumberWN11C 007 according to the Barrow Co. Tax Assessors Website. Mr. Wes Van-Kirk of Van Kirk Electric is pushing this rezone.

"We strongly oppose and believe the addition of a High Density Apartments development will add no value to our surrounding communities as most of our current apartment communities are always half empty. We oppose high density housing in our area"[quote's from local resident Mr. Cornel Cacuci] & all of Barrow County, & "want to prevent the negative consequences an impact like this will have: it will increase traffic, lower our property values by setting a precedent for High Density housing, increase crime, subsidized housing & overpopulate our school cluster." Specifically:

Please sign and share this petition to show your opposition to this rezone & development and let the Mayor of Winder, Winder City Council, and Barrow County Board of Commissioners know we do not approve!  The city of Winders city council voted during a pandemic (covid19) back in April to change our zoning laws and maps without citizens input. Now we are facing R3 high-density Apartments city wide. This is against the 2018 Winder future land use plan and Barrow county's current future land use plan!. No one knows about this! Pretty sneaky if you ask me.
