Earlier this month the Cobb Planning Commission voted to hold a proposal for a gas station/convenience store by RaceTrac at Bells Ferry Road and Barrett Parkway until October.
Two other cases in East Cobb that were to have been heard Tuesday by the Cobb Board of Commissioners also will be waiting for a month, continued by Cobb Zoning Staff.
That includes a proposal for a dog- training and boarding business by Annie Lou Crispell at a home off Terrell Mill Road that we wrote about in August.
During a Planning Commission meeting in August, Crispell tearfully explained how she’s tried to satisfy opposition from some neighbors.
But the five-member board voted on Sept. 2 to recommend denial, with Planning Commission member Deborah Dance saying the business was not appropriate for a residential neighborhood.
Since that vote, no new information has been added to that filing. Cobb Zoning Division manager John Pederson did not explain the reason for the continuance.
That case will go before county commissioners Oct. 21.
Little Sunshine’s Playhouse to rezone two acres at Sandy Plains Road and Trickum Road for a 12,330-square-foot day care center also is on hold until October (you can read the filings here).
The two land parcels fronting Sandy Plains Road are residentially zoned and have older homes on them, and are surrounded by other residential properties.
On Aug. 27, the applicant’s attorney, Parks Huff, submitted a list of stipulations to satisfy concerns from the East Cobb Civic Association.
Those cases will be heard by the Planning Commission on Oct. 7.
