Description

DOUGLASVILLE, GA — A proposed rezoning that would allow three new warehouses on Highway 5 has been sent back to the Douglasville Planning Commission, according to the Douglas County Sentinel. Council members made the decision via a vote last week after Zoning Administrator Ryan Anderson told the council that state law requires a Developments of Regional Impact (DRI) study to be completed before council can consider the request, the Sentinel reported. Some citizens have spoken out against the warehouse development, citing traffic concerns. The proposal would allow Cobb County-based Taylor & Mathis to rezone a nearly 65-acre property and build 737,200 square feet of a warehouse development.
