During a recent government meeting, concerns regarding traffic management on existing county roads were highlighted as officials discussed the annexation of a 22.97-acre parcel located at 120 Kennel Drive, also identified as tax parcel 000-730-032000. The current zoning classification for the property is county R1, while the proposed zoning is city R4.
Commissioner Byrd initiated a motion to concur with the annexation, emphasizing the need to address traffic issues that may arise from the development. Notably, the motion includes a stipulation that prohibits access to the property from Mott Circle, aiming to mitigate potential traffic congestion in the area. The motion received a second, indicating support among the commissioners for the proposed changes.
This discussion reflects ongoing efforts by local officials to balance development with community concerns, particularly regarding infrastructure capacity and traffic flow.
