Oconee Planning Commission Meets Tonight

The Oconee Planning Commission has scheduled an October meeting. The commissioners, along with Kyle Reid from the county roads and bridges department, will discuss county roads. A rezoning request for phase 3 of the Hidden Falls subdivision is also on the agenda. The request is to change the zoning from Control-Free to Lake Residential. The meeting will take place at 6 PM this evening in the county council chambers. Also, last week, a zoning variance was unanimously approved by the county board of appeals, paving the way for a new townhouse project near Seneca. The developers plan to build 68 townhomes on Wells Highway, located between Singing Pines Road and Utica Baptist Church. James Coley, the county planning director, shared these details.
