The
Franklin County Planning and Zoning board will hold a public workshop
this evening to start considering what future development in the St.
George Island commercial district should look like.
The
Franklin County Commission recently approved a 6 month moratorium on
new development in the commercial district between 3rd
street east and 3rd street west on St. George Island from
the Bay to the Gulf.
The
moratorium is designed to give the county time to craft rules to
protect the character of the commercial district which is the first
thing people see when visiting St. George Island.
The
Planning and zoning board is now working on a St. George Island
corridor overlay which will spell out more clearly the types of
development that will be allowed there.
If
you would like to offer your opinions of the future of he island's
commercial district then make sure to come out to the public
workshops.
The
first workshop will be Tuesday, October 10th at 6 PM at the Franklin
County Courthouse annex in Apalachicola.
