Cherokee Will Discuss Holly Springs Annexation

A proposal to annex and rezone property in Holly Springs for a convenience store will be discussed by the Cherokee County Commission during its meeting today.

The meeting starts at 6 p.m. at the Cherokee County administration building in Canton. The meeting will be preceded by a 3 p.m. work session. 

James Rollins Jr. of Peach Consolidation Property, LLC is petitioning the city of Holly Springs to annex and rezone 3.2 acres at 3925 and 3907 Hickory Flat Highway from R-40 residential to general commercial. The company plans to build a convenience store with gas sales on the property. 

The properties sit across from the Harmony on the Lakes development. 

Commissioners will also hold a public hearing for its proposed 2014 budget, which is proposed at $167.3 million. That's a 10 percent drop from the current budget of $187.3 million.

The budget reduction is driven by the county cutting capital project spending and a lower debt service.
