Franklin
County Commissioners will hold a Public
Hearing on Tuesday afternoon to decide on Eastpoint's Serenity
Seaside Resort Planned Unit Development.
If
approved, the development would include 44 residential units, a 40
unit hotel and 60 cottages on about 56 acres at the intersection of
Island Drive and South Bayshore Drive near the St. George Island
bridge.
The
proposal has garnered some opposition.
Concerns
have been raised about traffic and congestion as well as the impacts
the development could have on nearby wetlands and the bay.
Tomorrow's
hearing is a continuation of a meeting that was held in May.
During
that meeting commissioners decided to give the developers more time
to work with county staff to tweak their plans and to add some
affordable housing to the proposal.
If
you have an opinion on the development you are welcome to attend the
public hearing which will be held at 1:30 Tuesday afternoon at the
Franklin County Courthouse Annex in Apalachicola.
