Franklin County Commissioners agreed
last week to rezone a 40 acre parcel at Hickory Hammock outside of
Carrabelle.
The board agreed to change the zoning
from agricultural, which allows one home on 40 acres, to R6 which is
called Rural residential.
R6 zoning allows one home for every 10
acres.
The action was taken at the request of
Vance Millender.
The rezoning was opposed by a
neighboring landowner who expressed fears that the four homes could
be clustered next to his property along the Crooked River.
Another neighbor, who did not oppose
the rezoning, expressed concerns about the potential for 4 more docks
on the River,
Commissioners said those issue would
have to be dealt with when Mister Millender returned to the county
for approval for his plat showing how he plans to develop the
property.
Commissioner Cheryl Sanders said a
number of properties in the area had received similar rezonings in
the past as they were purchased by people who want to provide
property for their extended families to build homes.
