The Henry County Zoning Advisory Board convened for its August 13 regular meeting via video conference and considered two rezoning applications along with three other requests.

  The board denied a request by Buckley Carson of Dallas, Tex. for a variance from development standards for 76.73 acres of property located at 761 Clark Drive. The request was for relief from the required physical roadway infrastructure improvements.

  A conditional use request was approved with conditions for 26.6 acres at 930-B Dailey Mill Road. The request by Duke Transport & Towing LLC was for a wrecker service with storage area in an existing building. The applicant’s stated intention is to store towed vehicles indoors so that they will not be visible to the public.

  The board recommended approval of a request by TRG Hwy. 155 Investors LLC of McDonough for rezoning from RA (residential-agricultural) and R-3 (single-family residence) to RS (residential suburban) for 70.24 acres located west of Hwy. 155 North and north of Town Square Drive, for a mixed single-family residential and townhome development.

  Also recommended for approval was an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan for for 8.43 acre of property located south of Hwy. 20 West and east of Simpson Mill Road. The request by ARP Holdings LLC of Conyers was to change the Future Land Use Map designation from Low Density Residential to Commercial. However, a rezoning request from OI (office- institutional) to C-2 (general commercial) for the same site, to allow a retail center, was recommended for denial.
