2026-07-21 - Planning Board

Summary

This page summarizes the posted agenda packet together with the minutes of the meeting itself, which were attached to the August 4 packet. The packet (staff memo of June 14 from Lee Crook, agenda, July 7 minutes and the Galaxi Towers application) previewed one rezoning and two subdivisions. At the meeting Chairman Greg Greene excused Joe Hayworth and alternate Jim Myers sat as a voting member (both 4-0); alternate Christian Jones stepped aside because of conflicts with the subdivisions. Tony Phillips's Kendall Communications request for Galaxi Towers Rezoning - Emanuel Church Road (REZ-26-12) was reported withdrawn, because the Commissioners had passed a text amendment on July 16 allowing towers up to 199 feet in RA districts and the proposed tower is 195 feet. The Board approved the final plat for Linwood Acres Subdivision Phase 2 (5-0) after the landlocked common area was removed from the plat and labeled "retained by developer", approved the preliminary plat for the 30-lot Wheatstone Subdivision (5-0) after a long side discussion of cluster mailbox shelters, and, with Tryon Fields added to the agenda, released the bond for that subdivision (marketed as Evergreen Landing) 5-0.
