A proposal to annex and rezone a parcel of land on Bagwell Road from county jurisdiction to the City of Carrollton is under review. The applicant has requested that the property be zoned for Light Industry (M-1), consistent with adjacent parcels in the area. This request is expected to come before the City of Carrollton Planning Commission on February 11th at 5:45 p.m. during a meeting held in the First Floor Courtroom of the Public Safety Annex at 115 W Center Street, Carrollton, GA 30117.
According to city officials, the rezoning request aligns with current zoning for neighboring properties, and the applicant intends to market the parcel for future development. The “flex option” would allow the potential combination of this parcel with adjacent properties, creating broader opportunities for industrial or commercial growth in the area.
A representative from the City of Carrollton commented on the proposal, stating:
“The annexation and rezoning request is from County to City Light Industry (M-1), which is what the adjacent parcels are also zoned. I believe the applicant wants to bring this portion into the city and market it for development in the future with the flex option to combine it with adjacent properties.”
This process reflects Carrollton’s efforts to guide growth and development in a way that supports the city’s long-term economic goals. As part of the rezoning process, public meetings like the upcoming Planning Commission meeting provide opportunities for citizens to ask questions, voice concerns, or learn more about potential impacts on the community.
Community members, particularly those with an interest in Bagwell Road’s future, are encouraged to attend the meeting. City representatives and the applicant will be present to address questions and provide further details on the proposed project.
