Jimmy Daniell Road Rezone Withdrawn, But Two Presbyterian Homes Rezones On Oconee County Planning Commission Agenda

Most of the attention has been on the first of the two Presbyterian Home rezone requests, but the second one is significant as well.

The Oconee County Planning Commission agenda for Monday night got simpler on Friday when Oconee Medical Properties LLC withdrew its request for a rezone of five acres on Jimmy Daniell Road just north of the entrance to Silver Leaf subdivision.

Remaining on the agenda is the latest attempt by Presbyterian Homes of Georgia to obtain a rezone for a continuing care retirement community, this time on 70 acres with frontage on U.S. 441 and Wellbrook Road

A second, related rezone request by Presbyterian Homes also is on the agenda.

In addition, Milton O. S. Garland Sr. is seeking to rezone 12.4 acres on McNutt Creek Road to create three single-family residential lots.

So far, most of the attention has been on the first of the two Presbyterian Home rezone requests, but the second one is significant as well.
